Model: core Fraser 40 / TI 30 / RGI 30, renormalised over present pillars; EITI = +5 membership bonus (suspended members earn nothing). Inputs present: 1/4. Specification at /methodology/.

Trade-gap indicator: Sudan appears in the trade-gap matrix under active-conflict caution: third-party data is shown (UAE gold imports from Sudan ~+70% in 2024) but Afrimintel publishes no interpretation given the wartime context. Matrix & method → Data-layer caution; not a composite input.

Pillar vintages & basis

Fraser IAI 2025 (Annual Survey of Mining Companies, released 26 Feb 2026; 68 jurisdictions, 14 in Africa; survey conducted Aug–Nov 2025). All 14 Africa-covered jurisdictions are now PDF-Sourced from Table 1 (back-check 2026-06-24); ∗-marked scores had 5–9 responses (lower confidence). Côte d'Ivoire is Fraser-Sourced but its composite is withheld pending TI CPI + RGI ingestion. The other 26 Afrimintel jurisdictions are Fraser-Absent: not scored by Fraser in 2025 — most appear on the survey's published dropped-jurisdiction list (<5 responses), the remainder fall outside Fraser's survey coverage. Absent, not Pending) + TI CPI 2025 (Feb 2026 release, full Africa coverage) + NRGI RGI 2021 (latest available; NRGI has not republished since) + EITI implementation status 2026 (binary membership input) [composite v1.6.3 bonus-only: core Fraser 40% / TI 30% / RGI 30% re-normalised over available pillars; EITI membership = +5 bonus only, non-members NOT penalised; low-confidence flag when fewer than 2 of 4 signals present; specification at /methodology/]

Attribution requires either the country stated in the asset record name, or an externally Sourced enrichment record carrying a named primary source plus independent corroboration (no inference — text-inference attribution was built, tested, and withdrawn pre-deploy after verification caught false positives; see the audit log). 47 distinct platform assets remain Absent pending continuation of the record-enrichment pass (duplicate-flagged records excluded from this count as of v2.22.0).
