| dc.description | The two primary purposes of the national level scoping of the ASGM sector are to (1) provide the information necessary to develop effective mercury reduction strategies through the National Action Plan (NAP), target these strategies to areas of greatest concern, and measure the progress of these strategies in reducing and/eliminating mercury use and exposure in the ASGM sector; and (2) allow for the informed selection of sites that are representative of production and practices in the region, and thus will be targeted for baseline field data collection. The primary objectives of the national level scoping of the ASGM sector are to: (1) provide an improved understanding of the regional ASGM practices observed in [country name]; (2) identify best and worst processing practices; (3) identify areas with greatest mercury use, gold production, and ASGM workforce; (4) identify knowledge gaps that require further data collection; (5) identify key information that is already available or that should be collected in the field in order to calculate regional and national baseline estimates of mercury use; and (6) propose approaches for gathering field data and calculating these estimates in each mining region. | en_US |
