the article states $3.5 billion in profits and $200 million in sales. shouldn't this be $200 billion or $3.5million? I do not have any figures so I did not want to modify it. --edit -- it is 3.5 billion BELGIAN FRANCS and 2 lines later it is US $. would sombody look up the exchange rate at that time to make the article consistent?
I started writing this article thinking that it will be yet another stub, and am very much surprised to see how it has grown - and there's lots more to add. In my opinion, what this article mostly requires is: A. Headers. (It's too long to be kept headers-free.) B. A picture, although of what is yet to be decided. (The company's logo? A company-owned mine? Company-produced ores? There are many possibilities.) — Itai ( f&t) 16:17, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Union Minière de Haut Katanga is still one of Belgium's biggest enterprises. Although the company stopped mining in Congo, their are among Belgium's 20 biggest firms and they are listed in the Bel20. The firm was renamed into Umicore a couple of years ago (during the nineties)
The Google map view search for the UMHK [1] presently provides a very interesting map of locations of interest regarding the union. — Itai ( talk) 22:19, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
