Togo’s new mining strategy will soon be validated.
Last Thursday, a validation session for the document was indeed held in Adetikope, in the Agoè Nyivé prefecture, according to Togo First.
Director of the Mines and Geology Office, Marcel Sogle said, “this initiative falls under the Mining Governance and Development Project (PDGM). It also aims at providing the mining industry with a “means to record more efficient performances and better implement its programme.”
Mining contributes 22% of Togo’s exports and up to 3.7% of it’s GDP, according to the latest estimates.
