Out-of-Court Settlement Good for Some Tanzanian Villagers – But Many Others Hindered from Participation by Barrick’s Grievance Mechanism
February 10, 2015
RAID and MiningWatch Canada recognise the significance of the settlement of a legal case alleging that African Barrick Gold (now Acacia Mining) was liable for human rights abuses, including killings, at its North Mara mine in Tanzania. However, the NGOs are concerned that many victims were denied justice because they participated in the mine's flawed remedy programme and were excluded from the legal action. Moreover, wider questions about human rights abuses at the mine remain unanswered.
