The Liberia Chamber of Mines proudly congratulates the Government of the Republic of Liberia and U.S.-Owned Ivanhoe Atlantic Inc. on the signing of a historic concession and access agreement, an estimated $1.8 billion investment that marks a transformational step in Liberia’s Economic Development.
This landmark deal represents a bold stride toward the realization of President Joseph N. Boakai’s vision to operationalize a multi-user rail and port system, ushering in a new era of infrastructure development, regional integration, and international investment. It sends a strong signal to the global business community that Liberia is open for business and committed to fostering a transparent, modern, and investor-friendly environment.
“The Chamber applauds this milestone as a turning point not only for the mining and transport sectors but for Liberia’s broader economic aspirations,” said Mr. Amara KAMARA, President of The Liberia Chamber of Mines. “It reflects a strategic shift from “Aid to Trade”, creating jobs, empowering communities, and unlocking Liberia’s untapped potential.”
As U.S. investment on the continent increases, partnerships like this drive mutual prosperity and deepen bilateral ties. The Liberia Chamber of Mines stands ready to support this transformative agreement and ensure it delivers shared value to the people of Liberia and all stakeholders involved. Again, we congratulate Ivanhoe Atlantic Liberia who is a proud member of The Liberia Chamber of Mines.
