Mining industry of Mali : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mining industry of Mali
The mining industry of Mali is dominated by gold extraction which has given it the ranking as the third largest in Africa. Artisanal miners play a large part in the mining of diamonds. The other minerals extracted are rock salt and semiprecious stones.〔 Phosphates are mined in the Tilemsi Valley. In 2013, gold exports were of the order of 67.4 tonnes, nearly a 50% increase over the production in 2012 which is attributed mainly to the contribution of 20.7 tonnes made by artisanal mining. Gold, followed by cotton, is the top export item making a large contribution to the economy of the country. ==History== Gold extraction has occurred in Mali from ancient times using simple implements before the modern mechanized system came into practice.〔 This activity is traced to the days of monarchy of the Islamic emperors in the country when salt and gold were major Trans-Saharan trade commodities from Timbuktu and Djenné.〔 In 2007, it was reported that women and men in approximately equal proportions are associated with artisanal mining.
