ADDIS ABABA (FBC) -Al Hilal Gold Mining opened a gold detector assembly plant here yesterday.
The plant built at around Gofa Square will supply its products to local and East African gold miners at reasonable prices.The modern gold detector devices are expected to ease the lives of artisan gold miners and boost the declining export revenue of Ethiopia from gold.
The Ministry of Mines and Petroleum of Ethiopia indicated that it has been working hard to overcome the bottle necks in the process of gold mining and increase the income of the country from the mineral. One of these initiatives is to provide artisan gold miners affordable modern gold detector devices.
