Wolfram contributed a 7.4 per cent hence brought in $24million whereas Cassiterite brought in $50.5 million because of a value increase of 13% and therefore a 9.7 increase in price per kg. To date, Rwanda has three minerals which are predominantly mined and traded in the country, these being Cassiterite, Woltramite, Colombo- tantalite and some gold.

This report indicated that the government had set different strategies which can help bring in more international investors and help it develop the sector.
