Uganda releases seized Rwandan minerals trucks

Ugandan authorities have released two trucks full of minerals from Rwanda that had been seized at the Katuna border three months ago.

The Spedag trucks were carrying a combined 40 tonnes of tantalum and tin valued at about $750,000 (Rwf650 million), belonging to Mineral Supply Africa, a mining company operating in Rwanda, when they were impounded on August 2 on their way to Mombasa.
