Original Note:
Industrial gold mining in Mali did not begin until the 1980s, after the country became independent from France. Extraction was initiated by the World Bank and the USSR. Mali's gold is currently mined by firms located across the globe, but not specifically in France. https://www.cmi.no/publications/2340-socio-economic-effects-of-gold-mining-in-mali https://www.fidh.org/IMG/pdf/Mali_mines_final-en.pdf https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mining_industry_of_Mali
