#HerThoughts #Value #Addition: The #Road #Less #Travelled Africa exports its mineral wealth only to buy it back as finished products at a premium. I know it is not news..... This model, a vestige of colonial exploitation, undermines our economic sovereignty and stifles industrial growth. The AMV advocates for a shift towards mineral value addition — processing minerals locally to create jobs and retain more value within the continent. Yet, investment in this vision lags. Before diving into that, uuuh! seem like a long dive, lets take a look at the Africa Mining Vision and 1. Appreciate the thought of it. 2. Appreciate the resourcefulness of it, Talk about the Nine (9) clusters in it leaving no stone un turned from the source to the market kinda thing. 3. Put it into Action, No one outside the 30.3 million km2 (11.7 million square miles) will come and implement it on our behalf. And on the next couple of post I will be sharing my views on this. What is your take on the African Mining Vision? Share you country too as you comment. #SheIsAMine #AMV #Agenda2063 #TheAfricaWeWant #ValueAddition #EconomicSovereignty #IndustrialGrowth

Are you still afraid? West Africa is one of the biggest gold-producing regions in the world. According to Awalé Resources (TSX-V: ARIC) CEO Andrew Chubb, it holds well over 300M ounces of gold in reserves. Côte d'Ivoire, however, despite having 33% of the Birimian Greenstone Belt, holds only about 10% of those reserves. Andrew told me that showcases the untapped potential of the Ivory Coast, but is that the full story? Why hasn't there been as much work done in Côte d'Ivoire as in the other West African nations? "The main thing is the regulatory framework. With regulatory framework comes confidence in the bigger investors to bring big money into Côte d'Ivoire", he told me. "We're not just talking about exploration dollars where a company raises 5 or 10 million dollars to go and do some exploration. We're talking about the hundreds of millions of dollars, that you just talked about with Allied Gold, to develop projects", he added. That of course is not to say there is no risk. There will always be risk. However, things seem to be moving in the right direction in Côte d'Ivoire. -- VERY IMPORTANT WARNING: Awalé Resources has paid for the production of this interview.

Global gold production over the years ⛏ 👑 South Africa's grip on the gold crown has loosened considerably. Once an undisputed champion, the nation's gold production has taken a tumble. One key challenge lies in the nature of the resource itself – gold is finite. Easily accessible near-surface deposits were quickly exhausted, forcing miners deeper underground. Extracting gold from these extreme depths (3-4 KMs) requires substantial investments in infrastructure, ventilation, and cooling systems. These high costs make it increasingly difficult to make a profit. The high cost of deep-level mining has led major mining companies to re-evaluate their South African operations. Some, like AngloGold, have opted to leave entirely. Others, like Gold Fields & Sibanye Stillwater, have either minimised their presence or reduced capital expenditure on South African gold projects. A 2023 PWC report paints a grim picture. With an estimated 68 million ounces of gold reserves remaining, the South African gold industry might only have 27 years left. Many mines are expected to close even sooner, within the next 20 years. 🕰 Written by Marvin Matabane Source: VGraphs Curious about the forces shaping South Africa's economy & financial markets ⚡?
