Birlehlu (Liberated Zones), 27 June 2015 (SPS) - The
Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) is currently in talks with three
mining companies- Russian, Polish and Spanish – on granting them
exploration rights on the liberated Sahrawi zones, according to Africa
Intelligence.The talks are being conducted on the Sahrawi side by the Petroleum and Mining Authorities (PMA) following SADR’s decision a few months ago to manage mining resources in the liberated zones.
Last October, the Sahrawi government awarded seven exploration licenses to Australia’s Hanno Resources.
The soul is thought to contain huge amounts of gold, silver, iron ore and other base metals as well as uranium, diamonds and even rare earths, added the source. (SPS)
