Our Liberian deposits are an attractive suite of investments which, when combined with our interests in Guinea, have the potential to form the backbone of a world class cluster of mines around an integrated rail and port infrastructure, much in the way our Western Australia Iron Ore operations started in the 1960s.
The continuing growth of our West Africa business has resulted in a number of exciting and challenging employment opportunities. We currently employ more than 300 people in Liberia and equal numbers across the SMFG Joint Venture in Guinea.
