Union Minière du Haut Katanga
The ''Union Minière du Haut-Katanga'' ("Mining Union of Upper Katanga"), often abbreviated to UMHK, was a Belgian mining company, once operating in Katanga, in what is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo, formerly the Congo Free State (1885-1908) and Belgian Congo (1908-1960).
It was created on October 28, 1906, as a result of a merger of a company created by Léopold II and Tanganyika Concessions Ltd (a British company created by Robert Williams, which started prospecting for minerals in 1899, and was granted mining concessions in 1900), in order to exploit the mineral wealth of Katanga. It was owned jointly by the ''Comité spécial du Katanga'', a joint venture company controlled by the Belgian Congo government, the ''Société Générale de Belgique'', Belgium's largest holding company (which controlled 70% of the Congolese economy) and Tanganyika Concessions Ltd. Exercising preponderant influence over the ''Comité spécial'', the Société Générale effectively controlled the Union Minière from its inception to 1960.〔Robert Kovar, "La congolisation de l'Union minière du Haut-Katanga" in ''Annuaire français de droit international'', 1967, No. 13, pp. 747-748〕 Some of the remains of the UMHK form part of the present day company Umicore.
