    La mise en valeur des ressources minérales est habituellement présentée comme consistant en l'extraction des produits min&aux (m&aux) pour importation dans le but d'obtenir des devises; toutefois, dans le présent document, je voudrais me concentrer sur un autre aspect de l’exploitation minière.

Indeed, time available for drafting this report and the data available to us did not allow scrutinizing certain issues relating to the development of river and lake basins. This report made use of data contained in another report prepared in 1989 and supplemented by other data gathered in the process of drafting this report.

    Depuis un peu plus de vingt ans, le Gouvernement guinéen multiplie des efforts pour faire aboutir le projet MIFERGUI, qui vise l'exploitation de 420 millions de tonnes de réserves prouvées de fer du gisement de Pierré Richaud, dans les monts Nimba. L'une des contraintes- et pas des moindres- à sa réalisation, est la préservation de l'environnement de cette région de la Guinée, dont une partie a été classée patrimoine mondial, en raison de la richesse de la faune et de la faune dont certaines espèces sont très rares au monde.
