GUINEA MINISTRY OF MINES AND GEOLOGY
Outline the importance of the forthcoming Symposium of Mines in raising the profile of Guinea . The organisation of this event in 2017 is pivotal to the department ’ s mining promotion policy . The Symposium Mines Guinée ( SMG ) is designed for a better understanding of Guinea ’ s mining and investments potential .
The SMG will draw a clearer picture of Guinea ’ s business climate as well as the government ’ s strategic orientations and reforms . The Ministry ’ s goal is to appeal to key mining players and connect qualified investors to Guinea ’ s largely untapped resources and promising projects . Industry leaders , junior companies , investors , institutions will receive detailed briefings on mining and exploration projects . In short the SMG will allow us to develop a strong networking value chain . The aim is to organise the event on annual basis and make it West Africa ’ s definitive meeting place for mining professionals .
