According to THISDAYLIVE, WiM-Africa, a network promoting gender diversity and inclusion in the mining sector, has called for Africa to strengthen its influence over the global pricing and value determination of its mineral resources. The organization, which has a presence in Abuja, believes that Africa can achieve this by developing stronger market intelligence, processing capacity, mineral data, and mineral trading platforms. The push for greater African influence in mineral pricing is significant, as the continent is rich in mineral resources yet often underrepresented in global markets. This development underscores the need for African nations to leverage their mineral wealth more effectively to boost their economies. The call by WiM-Africa aligns with ongoing efforts by African governments and organizations to assert control over their natural resources and improve their bargaining power in global markets.
