加纳总统表示,加纳计划到2030年禁止出口未经加工的矿石,以促进国内加工,此举强化了非洲资源丰富国家为从本国矿产中获取更多价值而采取的更广泛行动。
Ghana plans to ban exports of raw mineral ores by 2030 to boost domestic processing, its president said, reinforcing a broader push by Africa’s resource-rich countries to capture more value from their minerals.
“投资者必须了解,获取我们的资源伴随着加工义务,”总统约翰·德拉马尼·马哈马在阿克拉举行的一次矿业会议上说。该国是非洲最大的黄金生产国,还开采锰、铝土矿和钻石。
“Investors must understand the processing obligations associated with access to our resources,” President John Dramani Mahama said at a mining conference in Accra. The country is Africa’s largest gold producer and also mines manganese, bauxite, and diamonds.
全球对用于清洁能源和先进技术的矿产的争夺,加剧了中国、美国和欧洲在非洲供应上的竞争。加纳拟议中的限制措施将使其与刚果民主共和国等国为伍,后者限制铜和钴精矿的出口。
The global race for minerals used in clean energy and advanced technologies has intensified competition between China, the US, and Europe for African supplies. Ghana’s proposed restrictions would put it alongside countries such as DR Congo, which restricts exports of copper and cobalt concentrates.
