Kamran Khozan was hosted by Critical Minerals Institute (CMI) as Day 1 keynote speaker and made a speech about “Africa and the Critical Minerals Market” on Tuesday, May 13 (9:40 – 10:00 AM ET), offering a strategic roadmap for resource-rich African states to leapfrog into refined-product leadership of critical minerals through CVMR’s zero emission vapor metallurgy technology.
Africa has always been one of the top 5 locations for mining industry, if not the first one. One of the reasons for African mining being so popular is cheap labor and the extremely poor quality of workers lives, has been easy to hide under geopolitical and racial covers for centuries.
Now, the world has started to change and African nations have began to stand for their rights and seek a better life and future for themselves and their country and continent.
Kamran M. Khozan walks us through the history of force labor in Africa and the systematic changes that is happening in Africa.
