Angola and Spain strengthen ties in mining at a public event on March 27.<\/h1>
<\/div>

The African country will present results from its subsoil study.<\/h2><\/div>[vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1553254797896{margin-right: 20px !important;margin-left: 20px !important;padding-top: 20px !important;}”]Next Wednesday, March 27<\/strong>, the G\u00f3mez Pardo Foundation in Madrid will host an Open Day for attracting mining investors to Angola<\/strong>. This event marks the culmination of advancements in subsoil research and the subsequent definition of its geological mining map, which will bring to light the mineral resources of the African country.<\/p>\n

The event will be attended by authorities from the Spanish and Angolan Governments, including our Secretaries General for Coordination of Scientific Policy and for Industry and Small and Medium-sized Enterprises<\/strong>, Rafael Rodrigo and Ra\u00fcl Blanco, respectively, and the Angolan Secretary of State for Geology and Mines<\/strong>, J\u00e2nio da Rosa Corr\u00eaa Victor, among others. Representatives from leading companies in the sector such as ATLANTIC COPPER, ORVANA MINERALS CORP, and GRUPO CLENCORE<\/strong> have also confirmed their attendance.<\/p>\n

The purpose of the meeting is to present the results obtained from these 6 years of research, which is still ongoing, and to encourage investment in that country.<\/p>\n

In 2013, the Angolan Government put out to tender the development of its National Geological Plan<\/strong> (PLANAGEO), dividing the extensive territory into three parts. The Spanish-Portuguese consortium UTE PLANAGEO, comprising the geological surveys of Spain and Portugal (IGME and LNEG) along with a Spanish engineering firm (IMPULSO INDUSTRIAL ALTERNATIVO, S.A.), was awarded the Southern Zone<\/strong> of the country, covering an area of almost 500,000 km\u00b2. Since then, this consortium has been working on this project, which is expected to be completed in 2020. The MAG-RAD aerogeophysics has already been completed, and the 1:250,000 geological mapping is nearing completion. Currently, more detailed studies are being launched in selected areas of interest, for which 1:100,000 geological maps and 1:50,000 industrial rock and mineral or metallogenetic maps are being produced.<\/p>\n

PLANAGEO undoubtedly represents a great opportunity for the African country and for mining companies worldwide<\/strong>. Among the results being obtained, the enormous potential Angola offers for the granite industry, due to the vast abundance of this mineral, is particularly noteworthy.<\/p>\n
