콩고민주공화국은 아프리카의 중앙에 위치하며, 기반암인 화강암계열의 암석들은 주로 북쪽과 북동쪽에 위치한다. 신원생대부터 중생대까지의 퇴적암들은 주로 콩고분지와 카루분지에 연관하여 발달하며, 중생대에서 현생시기까지의 퇴적암, 퇴적물들은 주로 콩고의 서부와 중앙부에 발달한다. 콩고민주공화국에 발달하는 대부분의 광상은 화강암계열의 관입암과 연관되어 나타나며, 키바라이드대, 루필리안호, 열곡대 등의 영향으로 주로 남쪽과 동쪽에 밀집된다. 남쪽과 동쪽을 포함하여 콩고민주공화국 내에는 다이아몬드, 금, 코발트, 구리, 아연 등 수많은 고부가가치 지하자원 및 카보너타이트와 연관된 희토류 광물들이 풍부하게 부존되어 있다. 콩고민주공화국의 자원개발은 대규모의 국영기업, 국영민간 합작기업, 민간기업, 소규모의 영세채광업자에 의해 이루어지고 있는데, 외국계 광업회사들은 대부분 국영기업들과 제휴 협정을 맺고 자원개발에 참여 중이며, 낙후된 광업 부문 발전 도모를 위해 카빌라 대통령은 관련 법령의 제정 및 개정, 정부간섭 최소화 등 투자촉진 정책을 시행하고 있어 향후 콩고의 광물생산이 크게 증가할 전망이다. 따라서 전략적으로 접근한다면 자원 확보가 유리한 지역으로 판단된다.

One of the world's top resource-rich countries, the Democratic Republic of the Congo has ample reserves of cobalt, iron ore, copper and diamond in particular. Importing most of major mineral resources, the Republic of Korea has examined-together with the Congo government since 2008-the possibility of a project where it supports port construction in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and acquires useful minerals such as zinc, cobalt and copper in exchange through slag reprocessing in the local city of Lubumbashi. This study conducted feasibility analysis on the slag reprocessing project in Lubumbashi, Congo and found that the project's payback period stands at 6.7 years, net present value(NPV) at 34 million dollars and internal rate of return(IRR) at 17.4%. According to sensitivity analysis that takes into account uncertainties concerning taxation, fixed cost, operational cost and resource prices, the NPV of the project ranges from -24.8 million dollars to 92.7 million dollars.

Purpose: This study was undertaken to examine the perception of Korean consumers regarding soybean meat. Using the Dietary Identify Questionnaire (DIQ), the data obtained were analyzed to identify various factors related to a plant-based diet. Methods: A consumer survey was conducted from June 1^st to 30^th, 2021, targeting 260 Korean consumers over the age of 20 years. Subjects were asked to answer six questions related to the perception of soybean meat. Of the 52 items present in the DIQ, 33 items were verified and reconstructed. All data were analyzed using the SPSS statistics (ver.25). Results: The subjects were divided into two groups, 'passive consuming group' and 'active consuming group', based on their perception of soybean meat. Demographic analysis according to the perception of soybean meat showed significant differences in age, marital status, academic background, and family members. The DIQ was categorized into 7 types: prosocial motivation, out-group regard, centrality, public regard, personal motivation, strictness, and private regard. Comparing by perception about soybean meat, significant differences were obtained between both groups for 'prosocial motivation (p < 0.01)', 'centrality (p < 0.01)', 'private norm (p < 0.05)', and 'personal motivation (p < 0.001)'. The 'passive consuming group' showed relatively low scores in all 4 factors. Conclusion: In the future, the results of this study can be applied to define the meaning of vegan in Korea. We believe our results will provide basic marketing data for the plant-based meat market. This will help expand the soybean meat market for a sustainable life for consumers, which is based on various needs such as health and the environment.

The promotion of overseas projects by construction enterprises has appeared as a way to overcome the current business difficulties of the Korean construction industry, which largely caused by the slow growth of the domestic market and the intensified competition among construction companies. The government has also shown considerable interests in the strategic approach of promoting construction projects by private companies in natural resource-rich countries, which helps the internationalization of Korean companies and the acouisition of natural resources. In this regard, this research examines the status of the construction market in the Democratic Republic of the Congo(DRC) whose potential economic growth is considered as significant, while exploring the appropriate Investment strategies of Korean construction enterprise. Since little appears to be known about the construction market and economic conditions of the DRC, after a documented review of the development trajectory of the country, a field investigation was preformed in June 2008 for obtaining information on the subjects. This research finds that the road construction is the area to fulfill the several important criteria of implementing construction projects in developing regions, including the safety/reliability for gaining investment profits, the possibility of implementing construction projects on the gradual basis, the possibility of using the facilities after the project completion, and the linkage between payment and the construction stages. In regard to the current economic situation of the DRC and the policies of the DRC government, a package deal approach, which contains the exchange of the infrastructure construction by the Korean companies and the provision of natural resources by the DRC government, is the most feasible method for Korean companies to promote their businesses in the DRC's construction market.

DR. 콩고는 국제원조사업으로 이디오파 지역 내 "안전한 식수 공급 사업"을 요청하였다. 이에 2013년 KOICA에서는 당해 지역내 국제원조사업 실시에 대한 성과를 평가하고자, ODA 사업 추진 전 지역주민의 "삶의 질"을 사전 평가하였다. 본 논고는 KOICA의 DR. 콩고 이디오파지역내 "삶의 질" 평가 결과이다. "삶의 질" 분석을 위한 평가기준으로는 1. 현지 지역주민의 물이용 현황, 위생 및 환경 현황, 취수활동이 교육에 미치는 영향, 취수활동이 가정 경제 활동에 미치는 영향 등을 분석하고, 2. 식수공급사업 추진 시, 지역주민이 바라는 식수개발사업의 유형을 살펴보았다. 분석을 위한 자료 조사 방법으로는 설문 방법을 선택하였으며, 설문은 물 이용 현황, 질병 및 위생 관리 현황, 취수활동이 교육 및 가계 경제에 미치는 영향 그리고 지역주민이 바라는 식수사업의 방향 및 이유 등을 중심으로 구성하였다. 설문지 유형은 현황 관련 계량적 수치를 답하는 질문(계량적 평가)과 함께 지역주민이 현황에 관하여 인식하는 정도를 답하는 질문(비-계량적 평가, 리커트 5점 척도 이용)을 함께 구성하였다. 조사범위는 식수개발사업 범위에 있는 DRC 이디오파 28개 마을, 511 가구, 514 주민을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다.

Conflict minerals refer to minerals mined in conditions of armed conflict, especially as in the eastern provinces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The common conflict minerals are cassiterite, wolframite, coltan(columbite-tantalite ore), and gold, which are mined and extracted from the Eastern Congo. These minerals are essentially used in the manufacture of a variety of devices, including consumer electronics. To end the violent conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and in surrounding countries, it is necessary to block the supply route of conflict minerals which has been partially financed by the exploitation and trade of conflict minerals. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, passed into law in July 2010 and it contains requirements that U.S. companies report to the Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC) on the origin of conflict minerals and show due diligence of OECD. The goal of the act is to cut direct and indirect funding of armed groups engaged in conflict.
