Very interesting - especially in the context of Global Governance. Worth mentioning that despite vast mineral wealth in Africa there is relatively little mining activity. Why is that? Many reasons of course but it is probably the global core concerned about the risk of investment - often 4 or 5 years of mining before seeing any return. Then factor in political instability.
An old adage:
Q. What is the definition of a mine?
A. A hole in the ground with a liar standing next to it.
