TSCi agents pass by Ntufia’s SAEMAPE officers once or twice a monthto collect the documents containing all information on the mineral bags and their tags. These SAEMAPEagents however rarely visit the actual mines. The miners take their production home in the evening, andmineral traders buy in the miners’ camp. Once traders have acquired a sufficient volume, ready for ex-port, they will call on the SAEMAPE agent to come over to label the mineral bags. SAEMAPE agents, andconsequently iTSCi, have no actual oversight on production at the level of the mines.
