Kilo Moto was President Joseph Mobutu’s private mine, but the project, at
various stages, involved powerful Western interlocutors: Belgians Yves Le Norvan
and the Damseau family; Roger Lemaire, a Houston (TX) insider; and an Israeli
military agent identified as David Agnon.[68] Kilo Moto’s gold, then as now,
usually exited Congo (Zaire) through remote airstrips.[69]
The present Moto Gold Mining
"lease"—a massive land grab corruptly obtained—covers an area of approximately
1,841 square kilometers and involves sites at Durba, Watsa and Doko. Moto Gold’s
partners in Orientale include Siemens and Ken Overseas. Siemens director Tiego
Moseneke is also a director of PetroSA, a new South African oil minor poaching
DRC oil concessions on Lake Albert.[70] Ken Overseas Company is involved in the
Minière de Bakwanga (MIBA) diamond mines in Congo’s Mbuji-Mayi province. In
their reports on war and plunder in DRC, the United Nations Panel of Experts
named Ken Overseas in a MIBA mining consortium linked to Belgian tycoon Philippe
de Moerloose and Israeli mining magnate Dan Gertler; both men have been flagged
for arms trafficking.[71]
