Minister's Message

 
It is very clear now that Ethiopia is endowment with diversified mineral resources that are yet untapped. For this, no need of evidence than seeing international mining companies competing for license area in the know mineral belts. Well known companies from Canada, Australia, Britain,China, India and many other countries are undertaking intensive exploration for Au, Cu, Zn, Pb, Ag, Cr, Co, Ni, potash tantalum, niobium, coal, iron, phosphate and many other mineral commodities in Ethiopia.

There are recent discoveries of Au, Potash, and massive sulfide deposits of commercial status. Most of the company’s exploration result is so interesting that many companies are being attracted to invest in Ethiopia. We are ready to provide all information related to the resources, legal regime and infrastructure facilities at your convenience.

 With Regards,
 Mrs. Sinknesh Ejigu,Minister of Ministry of Mines
