Our view on Junior & Mid-tier MiningHigh risk, high return

Junior and mid-tier miners are an integral part of the African continent, and key to its future success. While the continent remains highly prospective and unexploited, there are several risks and challenges associated with operating on the continent. In a global business context, junior and mid-tier miners also have their own set of unique challenges. Deloitte’s mining experts have advised mining companies (majors, mid-tiers, and juniors) around the world. We have also operated on the African continent for over 100 years. We understand the unique complexities, risks, and challenges faced by junior and mid-tier miners on the African continent, and have developed a set of solutions specifically to address these needs.
