Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The Ministry of Mining has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with a Russian Company to identify and create digital mapping of South Sudan\u2019s minerals.<\/p>\n

This was on the sideline of the just concluded two-day Russia-Africa summit in Moscow where Vice President of the Infrastructure Cluster Taban Deng Gai represented South Sudan.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the state-run Television, SSBC at the weekend, the Under Secretary of the Ministry of Mining said the deal will enable the government to locate where exactly the minerals are.<\/p>\n

According to Dr. Cosmas Pitia Kujio, South Sudan is endowed with over 22 minerals, but their exact locations are yet to be identified.<\/p>\n

\u201c<\/b>This agreement is to provide us with digital mapping of the country, we have been in dilemma. Several times we talked saying we have 22 types of minerals in the country but we have more than that,<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will work together with Russia to identify what we have and where. There is other green energy mineral that is very important but we don\u2019t know where they are that IS why we signed the agreement so that we locate where they are exactly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Minister Pitia added that the Russian Geological Holding Growth Company will train our national staff on mineral-related skills.<\/p>\n

On his part, the Director General of the Russian Geological Holding Growth Company Alexey Sergevich said the imaging technology will expand aerial mapping, data collection, and seismic investigation of the country\u2019s underground wealth.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe main goal of our cooperation is to develop a mineral data base through high technology and experience,<\/p>\n

\u201cWe use our highly qualified and trained manpower to create a geological digital map and I hope together with the ministry of Mining we reach to good results,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Petroleum in June 2023 announced the purchase of a geophysics airplane to conduct aerial surveys of the country\u2019s mineral resources.<\/p>\n
