Bolivia mining royalties surge 103% in first year of new government

Bolivia's mining royalties increased 103% in the first year of the current government's management, according to the AJAM, which conducted over 50 operations across nine departments and reviewed 4,907 direct contracting processes for transparency. The claim is a government-reported statistic without independent verification, and the underlying drivers (commodity prices vs. policy changes) are unclear. This matters as a domestic political signal of administrative performance, but has limited direct market impact.
