DAKAR, May 30 (Reuters) - International mining companies operating in Democratic Republic of Congo will resort to legal action if their concerns over a new mining code signed into law in March are not addressed, they said in a letter to the mines minister seen by Reuters.
In the letter dated May 28, the companies, including Glencore GLEN.L and Randgold RRS.L , wrote to Mines Minister Martin Kabweulu that they had not received a response to 13 separate official correspondances to the government about the code.
Kabwelulu could not be immediately reached for comment.
