Introduction

A statistical yearbook is defined as a general work which compiles a set numerical data, in this particular case, the most important ones, relating to the economic, social and cultural activities carried out. It is therefore an important document which provides information on the amount of activity in the sub-sector and is a vital decision-making tool. This is why it is of equal interest to the public authorities, the private sector, and even technical and financial development partners, the beneficiary populations of our activities, etc.

Considered as such, a statistical yearbook is always based on an internal or international demand.

At the internal level, statistical information enables public authorities to develop, implement, monitor and evaluate public policies. As such, it is fundamental in the elaboration of sectoral strategies and programmes, which must be associated with a performance evaluation system based on performance indicators, baselines and targets.

In our sub-sector, the implementation of Vision 2035 of an emerging, democratic and united country in its diversity requires us to achieve important intermediate objectives. These objectives include notably that of attaining the status of a Newly Industrialized Country and Upper Middle Income Country. Statistical information therefore plays a fundamental role in defining actions to be implemented and assessing the contribution of these actions towards achieving the said objectives. Viewed from this angle, statistical information enables to translate the efforts made in various fields and to identify shortcomings.

At the international level, statistical information enables to know to what level the objectives of the international commitments made by the State have been attained, in this case, with regard to the global agendas: Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the various COPs, the 2030 Programme, the 2063 Agenda of the African Union, to name but a few. This information enables to assess the progress made in the quest to achieve these objectives.

This means that the policies and strategies that are drawn up and implemented to achieve the development objectives of our sub-sector and therefore of Cameroon must be based on statistics of good quality, i.e. relevant, accurate, current, accessible, intelligible and coherent.

The bulk of statistical information contained in the document is the result of a series of data collection provided by several actors and stakeholders during the year 2018 and completed in 2019.

METHODOLOGICAL NOTE

The Ministry of Mines, Industry and Technological Development (MINMIDT), through DEPCO, has undertaken to publish the second edition of its statistical yearbook in order to best meet the needs of decision-makers and statistics users in the mines, industry and technological development sub-sector.

A questionnaire for the data collection sheet of the statistical yearbook was developed and validated during a workshop by representatives of different stakeholders. This was followed by a process ranging from data collection to the dissemination of the Yearbook.

1. Data Collection and Centralization

Data collection sheets from the 2017 statistical yearbook were sent to various structures for information. A data collection form was designed for regional and divisional delegations. A similar approach was adopted for each Technical Department, for each agency, project and programme under MINMIDT’s supervision. The data presented come essentially from administrative sources. Teams of investigators were then deployed in all ten regions to collect data from MINMIDT's devolved services. Statistical data from the various structures were forwarded by official mail to MINMIDT and electronically to DEPCO. These statistics were then entered and processed.

2. 2. Data Entry, Processing and Validation

The staff of the Statistical Information System first entered the data in Excel according to the directory layout. This operation enabled the data to be processed properly. A validation workshop was organized with the participation of stakeholders and producers of statistics in order to review the data and arrive at a consensus document. The remarks and amendments resulting from this workshop were thus integrated into the final document.

3. Dissemination of the Yearbook

The statistical yearbook was produced in hard and electronic form, disseminated and made available to users.

CHAPTER I: GENERAL PRESENTATION OF CAMEROON

Cameroon is a Central African country located in the Gulf of Guinea. With a surface area of 475,442 Km2, it is bordered to the west and north-west by Nigeria on 1720 Km, to the south- west by the Atlantic Ocean, to the south by Equatorial Guinea on 183 Km and Gabon on 298 Km, to the east by the Central African Republic on 822 Km and to the north-east by Chad on 1,122 Km.

I.1. Relief

The Cameroonian relief is schematically divided into five (5) groups organized around a group of peaks of which Mount Cameroon is the highest. We may mention among others:

- the northern lowlands which globally include the flood plain or Yarest and the Diamare Plain; - the Cameroonian ridge which includes the Mandara Mountains culminating at 1,442 meters, the Adamawa Plateau which is a vast block of raised pedestals, punctuated by small volcanoes and culminating at 1,500 meters above sea level; - the Western Highlands which constitute a set of stepped plateaus and volcanic high reliefs. They include the Bamileke Plateau (1500-1800 metres), the Bamoun Plateau (1100-1200 metres), the Grass fields (1500-2000 metres), the Oku Mountains (3008 metres), the Bamboutos Mountains (2740 metres), the Manengouba Mountains (2396 metres) and Mount Cameroon (4095 metres); - the South Cameroonian Plateau with an altitude between 650 and 900 meters; - theCoastal Plains with a maximum depth of 360 metres, which cover the Douala sedimentary basin and extend to the Equatorial Guinean border.

I.2. Climate

Two major climatic domains exist in Cameroon. They include:

The equatorial climate characterized by abundant rainfall (more than 1000 millimetres of precipitation per year); a humid atmosphere throughout the year, with relative humidity constantly close to saturation point and reduced insulation. Temperatures vary between 25 and 35°C and the thermal amplitude, both day and night, are low. Moreover, in the Douala zone, a hyper humid equatorial climate is observed, while the zone surrounding Mount Cameroon reaches maximum rainfall levels (more than 7500 millimetres). The western highlands have an equatorial climate with

3 MIDTSTAT 2017 Ministry of Mines, Industry and Technological Development

high rainfall variations and low temperatures. As for the South Cameroonian plateau and the coastal plains, they have a Guinean-type equatorial climate.

The tropical climate is characterized by low rainfall, a longer dry season and high temperature amplitudes. Cameroon has several types of tropical climates including:

- the high tropical climate around the Adamawa Massif with abundant rainfall (around 1500 mm), a long rainy season and moderate temperatures; - the Sudanese type tropical climate around the Benue basin with a short rainy season and high temperatures; - the Sudano-Sahelian type tropical climate in the Far North zone with high temperatures and irregular rainfall.

I.3. Demography

According to the latest population census in 2005, Cameroon had a population of 20,549,221 inhabitants, a predominantly young population (almost 50% of the population is below 20). In addition, BUCREP estimated that by 2014, the population would be approximately 22,000,000. The annual growth rate is around 3%. This population comprises close to 250 ethnic groups and is composed mainly of the highland peoples (31%) and Bantu peoples (19%). In terms of religion, the population is 38.4% Catholic, 26.3% Protestant and 20.9% Muslim. There are also other religious groups (Animists, Orthodox, other Christians, etc.) and all live in perfect religious coexistence.

I.4. Economy

Cameroon's economy is the most diversified in Central Africa. Economic performance varies from one sector of activity to another:

The primary sector is dynamic. As a matter of fact, agriculture is rightly considered as one of the pillars of the economy in Cameroon. It is the economic activity that generates the most exported commodities, especially cash and food crops such as cotton, palm oil, cocoa, coffee, rubber, sugar and bananas. The fish sub-sector is also booming, although domestic demand is still high. Thus, nearly 64,000 tons of marine products are fished each year along the Cameroonian coast. Moreover, forestry is one of the most important activities of the national economy with the wood sector contributing 5% to GDP, 10% to non-oil revenues and generating about 30% of non- oil export resources. The most commercialized species are including bubinga, ayous, sapelli, mahogany, moabi and azobe.

In the secondary sector, Cameroon's industrial ambition is to move its economy from the primary to the secondary phase, with manufacturing production contributing more than 23% to GDP, compared to 11% currently, and a secondary sector that contributes globally 40% to GDP. The secondary sector presents a variety of manufactured products. The textile and leather industry is still experiencing some difficulties. The invasion of the market by second-hand and smuggled goods threatens the few existing industries. Chemical and para-chemical industries are still in a development phase. Nevertheless, several companies operate in the soap, perfume and paint industries. The mechanical and metallurgical industry is based on the transformation of aluminium, with an annual production is estimated at 85,000 tonnes. Other products are still subject to high internal demand, especially cement and in 2018, the capacity of local cement production were estimated at close to 3.8 million tonnes with 1.5 million for Dangote and Cimencam; 500,000 for Cimaf, 200,000 for Medcem and 100,000 for Engin S.A. However, real production is estimated at 2.9 million tonnes with 41% market shares several other operators areconsidering setting up

production or bagging units in Cameroon, such as South Korea's Afco, the American Kaiafas and more recently the Korean G-Power. Cameroon, an oil producing country, is hard hit by the drop in oil prices and stocks of this rent-seeking product. However, with the handing overof the Bakassi Peninsula to Cameroon, national production is expected to rise in the coming years.

The tertiary sector (services and trade) is the most dynamic sector of the national economy and accounts for about 86% of the companies established in Cameroon. This sector is based on the banking, transport and tourism sub-sectors. The banking sub-sector is generally characterized by over liquidity and is highly concentrated. Sixteen (16) banks are established in Cameroon (Afriland First Bank, BICEC, SGC, SCB ATTIJARI WAFA BANK, ECOBANK, CBC, Standard Chartered Bank, Citibank, UBA, UBC, NFC, BGFI and Banque Atlantique). The transport sub-sector is also one of the most important. Although land transport is lagging behind in its development due to very inadequate road and rail infrastructure, maritime and air transport is rather more dynamic. They account for the majority of Cameroon's foreign trade. Finally, the tourism sub-sector is also booming. The country's main tourist sites are located in the North, West and South-West Regions.

I.5. Mines Sub-Sector

In 2017, the extractive sector generated budget revenues for the State to the tune of CFAF 441.97 billion (USD 772.21 million)1 , representing 70.80% of total payments made by extractive companies during the same period. The hydrocarbon extraction sector nevertheless remains the largest contributor with a total of CFAF 406.58 billion representing 91.99% of total budget revenue generated by the extractive sector in 2017.The government has, however, undertaken reforms in this sector aimed at increasing its contribution to the country's economy while providing a better framework for non-industrial mining activities. This sector nevertheless has huge potentials, particularly with regard to non-industrial mining activities and the exploitation of certain minerals such as bauxite. Hence, the Non-Industrial Mining Support and Promotion Framework (CAPAM) was created by Order No. 064/PM of 25 July 2003 in order to channel Cameroon's non-industrial mining production from the informal to the formal sector. Cameroon has also joined the Kimberley Process in order to guarantee greater transparency and traceability in diamond mining and marketing. In addition, exploration activities have revealed the existence of significant bauxite deposits of over 700 million tonnes. In fact, after five (5) years of collaborative work between the World Bank and MINMIDT, 300 new rare minerals were recently discovered in seven (7) of the

10 Regions of Cameroon: Far North, North, Adamawa, Centre, East, North-West and West. These include copper, gold, uranium, zinc, zinc, nickel, rutile, manganese and base metals, especially rare earths.

There is a perception that communication in the mining sector is insufficient or non- existent. Similarly, some people working in the sector do not master the figures, while the GESP advocates strengthening the statistical information system in almost all sectors to ensure a successful monitoring and evaluation system. It then becomes necessary to communicate and disseminate statistical data on the mines, industry and technological development sub-sector more effectively. MINMIDT’s Statistical Yearbook (MIDTSTAT) provides a partial solution as a tool for disseminating existing statistical data in the mines, industry and technological development sub-sector.
