International Egypt Mine Forum: an essential opportunity for Sudan – something for the fatherland – ✍️ Mr. Salah Gharibi
The regional and international mining community is preparing to start the activities of the fourth session of the International Mining Forum (EMF) of Egypt on the fifteenth of July. This forum, organized by Cairo, is a pivotal platform to exchange experiences, display the latest technologies and discuss challenges and opportunities in the mining sector. In the midst of these important activities, an ultimate necessity for the participation of Sudan is effectively and intensively in this exhibition and the forum.
Sudan has huge and completely and underestimated possibilities. Besides gold, which is one of its most important mining resources, Sudanese land is abundant in large quantities of other minerals such as iron, copper, chrome, manganese and uranium, in addition to precious stones. This inherent wealth can form a real locomotive for economic development in the country, offering excellent employment opportunities and contributes to diversifying national income sources far from excessive dependence on the limited sectors.
Sudan’s participation in the Forum is necessary to attract foreign investments, the Egyptian mining forum will provide an ideal environment for the meeting of international investors and large companies working in the mining sector. Sudan, in current circumstances, must attract foreign capital to finance major mining projects that require huge investments in infrastructure, technology and exploration. Sudanese officials can display available opportunities, provide investment incentives and strengthen trust with potential investors.
The exchange of experiences and knowledge, because the forum will bring together experts from around the world to discuss the latest developments in the field of mining, including modern exploration and extraction technologies, sustainable environmental practices and rational resource management. Sudanese participants can greatly benefit from this knowledge to improve their technical and technical capacities and apply international best practices in their mining sector.
The Forum opens up great prospects to establish strategic partnerships with regional and local countries and other companies. Sudan can explore cooperation opportunities in the fields of training, infrastructure development and even establish joint projects that contribute to the realization of mutual benefits.
Despite the challenges that Sudan faces, his active participation in an international forum of this size can help improve its mental image as a country rich in natural resources and has the desire to develop and open to the world. This participation can also open new dialogue channels and technical and technical support opportunities for international organizations.
There is no doubt that there are challenges that the mining sector is confronted with Sudan, such as low infrastructure in certain regions, the need to develop the legal and regulatory framework, and the need to improve transparency and to fight against illegal exploitation. However, these challenges should not be an obstacle to effective participation, but rather an incentive to provide clear solutions and strategies to remedy them.
Sudan’s participation in the International Forum of Egypt Mines is not only a presence of protocol, but rather a strategic necessity dictated by the possibilities inherent in this vital sector. The authorities concerned in Sudan must invest this opportunity to improve their position in the world mining card, attract the necessary investments and benefit from international experiences to ensure sustainable and complete development that benefits the Sudanese people.
We are impatient to see a strong and influential Sudanese participation in this important forum, opening new horizons for the future mining future.
