Samira Hill Gold Mine : ウィキペディア英語版 | Samira Hill Gold Mine
The Samira Hill Gold Mine (fr. ''Mine d'Or du Mont Samira'') is a Gold mine in Téra Department of the Tillabéri Region in Niger. Opened in late 2004, it is the first industrial scale gold mine in the nation, and while operated by a Canadian/Moroccan consortia, the government of Niger owns both a 20% stake in its operation, and functions under government concession. The mine, and the possibility that other gold concessions will follow, is projected to be an important component of future export revenue for the West African state.〔(Samira Hill Gold Mine: African Development Information Database ).〕 ==Mining in Tera== Exploitable deposits of gold have long been known to exist in Niger in the region between the Niger River and the border with Burkina Faso, and artisanal gold mining has previously taken place in the area.〔(Background Note:Niger ), United States State Department, Bureau of Public Affairs: Electronic Information and Publications Office. Bureau of African Affairs. September 2008.
