GOLD AND DIAMONDS GROUP

Gold is a chemical element with the symbol Au and atomic number 79. It is a dense, lustrous, yellow precious metal that is highly malleable and ductile . Gold is one of the least reactive chemical elements, making it resistant to corrosion and tarnish . It is also a good conductor of electricity and heat . Gold has been used for various purposes throughout history, such as in jewelry, currency, and electronics . The metal is also used in dentistry and medicine . In 2020, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) reported that gold was produced in 12 states at more than 40 lode mines, at several large placer mines in Alaska, and numerous smaller placer mines (mostly in Alaska and in the Western States) . 

Rough diamonds are precious stones in their natural state, extracted directly from mines without having undergone any cutting or polishing. Unlike cut diamonds, their beauty lies in their authenticity and unique, often irregular appearance with natural facets created by nature. 

Main features:

1. Natural Appearance: Rough diamonds come in varying shapes, often octahedral or cubic, and can appear dull or opaque.

2. Varied colors: They can be colorless, lightly tinted or even have rare colors like yellow, pink or blue.

3. Unique value: Their value depends on their weight (carats), their purity, their color and their potential once cut.

Obtaining an operating license  in Africa is an essential step for any company wishing to extract natural resources such as gold, diamonds, oil, or other minerals. This process varies by country, but is generally based on a well-defined legal and regulatory framework to ensure responsible and sustainable exploitation of resources.

Mining licenses come in several categories:

• Exploration license : Granted for the search for mining or petroleum deposits.

• Mining license : Authorizes the extraction and processing of identified resources.

• Artisanal license : Issued for small-scale mining activities.

• Industrial exploitation license : Granted for large-scale projects, often for multinationals.
