Because of concerns raised by those within the mining industry, the Ministry of Natural Resources will be hosting a stakeholder engagement.
The engage for members of the mining community will be held on Thursday September 7, 2017. This engagement is intended to address concerns that were recently raised by miners about the state of the industry and the means through which these will be satisfactorily addressed by all sides.
The Guyana Gold and Diamond Miners’ Association (GGDMA), the Guyana Women Miners’ Organisation (GWMO) and the National Mining Syndicate, representing mining syndicates from across the country, have been invited to the stakeholder engagement.
This stakeholder engagement is part of the Ministry of Natural Resources’ ongoing efforts at public consultation and outreach on a number of natural resources-related issues.
