siksi, että suurin piirtein ja koulutuksen, ja koulutuksen kohdistuminen on tärkeää. Se on tärkeä, jos ei suurin piirtein suurin piirtein osallistuminen ympäristö- ja kansainvälinen suhteen. Olemme nähneet yliopistoja maahanmuuttoon Sierra Leoneen viime viikkoja.

but as a mining operation, Koidu managed to survive both the good times and the bad. And this is reflected in the relative prosperity of the district and the area. Relative prosperity, but this view of Sierra Leone's economic potential hasn't always been so rosy.

A lot of the narrative out there is convoluted, it's fake, it's wrong. This pegging to the dollar and so on is part of that narrative. And there is no factual foundation for it. It's false. You were using an up-to-date exchange rate for their rates of pay, were you? No, we were paying the local workforce in Sierra Leonean currency.

which we were obliged to do by regulations in the country, the lowest paid worker at Koidu was paid three times the national minimum wage going into this. And the working conditions at Koidu, any person who has been there or visited will confirm that the conditions were exceptionally good, not only by Sierra Leonean standards, but by mining standards in Africa.

Now nobody wants to step up and own that. I don't think that there is a single serious investor or a provider of risk capital who would invest in that country today. Are you willing to go back in?

We would love to restart the mining operations, but we can only do that with the needed guarantees. Once you've been hijacked, pickpocketed, beaten up, you need all kinds of guarantees. And I don't see those guarantees forthcoming. I wouldn't feel comfortable sending anybody who has been involved on our side of the equation to that country today. I just don't think it's safe.
