Monrovia, Liberia – British mining companies Hamak Gold and 79 Resources Ltd have strongly rejected recent corruption allegations levied against one of their executives operating in Liberia. The companies described the claims as “unfounded” and reaffirmed their commitment to ethical operations in the country’s mining sector.
In a joint statement issued earlier this week, both companies said the accusations—reportedly involving improper business practices and bribery—are baseless and do not reflect the integrity of their operations or the conduct of their executive staff.
“We operate under strict corporate governance policies and remain fully transparent in our business dealings across all jurisdictions, including Liberia,” a spokesperson for the companies stated.
The controversy comes at a time when Liberia is under heightened scrutiny regarding transparency in its natural resource sector, with civil society organizations calling for greater oversight and accountability.
As the story unfolds, both Hamak Gold and 79 Resources Ltd have called for a fair and factual review of the matter, noting that the ongoing allegations could harm investor confidence in Liberia’s mining sector.
Giants News will continue to monitor the developments surrounding this issue and provide updates as more information becomes available.
