The national entity Mozambique Manning Mineral Group (MMMG) is betting on the implementation of a new project to boost and modernise gold mining in African countries, especially Mozambique. It involves the mass production of mobile units (vehicles or structures that can be adapted to offer services or products in different locations) adapted to the conditions of the African continent.
According to a publication by the Eurasia Daily news agency (EADaily), the initiative aims to stimulate the growth of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) operating in the mining industry, as well as empowering local residents to get involved in gold mining independently, promoting decentralisation and greater transparency.
According to MMMG, more than a thousand pre-orders have already been registered, which demonstrates significant interest in this innovative equipment, emphasising that DRCongo, Ghana and Mozambique are the priority countries for implementing the project.
‘The uniqueness of our mobile units lies in their mobility, ease of operation and accessibility for SMEs. The design meets the specificities of the African landscape and climate, ensuring reliable operation even in challenging conditions,’ explained MMMG manager Amram Petrosian.
He also emphasised that the equipment will allow local entrepreneurs to start businesses with minimal investment, reducing dependence on large mining companies and creating new opportunities for economic growth.
‘The project has enormous potential for the socio-economic development of African countries, as it will guarantee the creation of more jobs for young people in rural areas; improve people’s living standards; reduce dependence on large companies; stimulate the flow of investment,’ he added.
Amram Petrosian added that his institution is committed to sustainable development and plans to work closely with local authorities to ensure environmental safety and prevent illegal gold mining.
