Financing Models to Boost Exploration

[adsanity align='alignnone' id=362504]

In order to create an appropriate environment to support enterprise and boost mineral exploration, Government has promised a systematic effort to build knowledge and confidence among Nigerian financial institutions to support mining projects.

 

In addition, there is the establishment of the Nigerian Solid Minerals Investment Fund, structured as a private sector oriented investment outfit to provide financing to private sector led projects in the mining sector.  Nigeria offered a three-year tax holiday to mining investors as the West African nation seeks to raise as much as $7 billion to develop its minerals and steel industries.

 

Join us in two weeks’ time at the Nigeria Mining Week, incorporating iPAD Nigeria Mining & Quarrying Forum, where industry experts get together to assess this strategy and look at what has worked elsewhere.
