Ltd. He said there was a significant gap in steel production in Africa and the lack of steel enterprises, especially in the West African region.He noted that Sierra Leone\u2019s current mineral resources were being exported directly with low added value, adding that the added value of its mineral resources would promote the manufacturing industry, increase employment opportunities, and drive development of the national economy.<\/p>\n<p>He highlighted various projects being undertaken by the Leone Rock Metal Group such as establishing a \u201cperennial rice planting base\u201d to support agricultural development, creating a West African Logistics Centre to build an international logistics distribution base for the entire West African region and building a national shipping logistics system for the transportation of bulk goods from China to Africa.<\/p>\n<p>The CEO, Leone Rock Metal Group, Gilbert Zhao, revealed that the construction of the steel plant was expected to start in 2025 and that the steel production would be part of the Phase III cycle.<\/p>\n<p>In response, President Bio commended Leone Rock Metal Group for a track record of delivering on its promises. He welcomed the idea of the construction of the steel factory and described the experience at the steel plant as an eye-opener to the beneficiation of the iron ore.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll over the world, we see \u2018made in China\u2019. With this steel factory, we want to see \u2018made in Sierra Leone\u2019. We will give you all the support because this venture is important for the development of our nation.
