Guinea may be small in geography, but it sits atop vast mineral wealth. It holds the world’s largest bauxite reserves and is well-positioned to become a major supplier of gallium—a critical mineral required for semiconductors but whose exports China has restricted. Guinea has been on the U.S. minerals map since its independence from France, when U.S.-based Alcoa became its first foreign investor.
In this episode, CSIS’s Gracelin is joined by the Honorable Bouna Sylla, Guinea’s Minister of Mines and Geology, to discuss:
What measures Guinea is taking to stimulate Western investment
How Guinea is pursuing efforts to reduce corruption
Guinea’s ambitious infrastructure development plans, including being home to Africa’s largest infrastructure project – the $17 billion Simandou iron ore railway
How Guinea is looking to go beyond raw material exports
