The sheer scale of small mining activity in Ghana and surround countries was staggering. There is an enormous need for technical upgrading of equipment and techniques. We want to support the indigenous mining effort as much as possible. We are assessing the possibilities of creating a service and light manufacturing facility in Ghana, to support the volume of our equipment placements into Africa. "Kent Harmon said." This trip was consistent with MineralRite's business model of capitalizing on the recent economic trend of rising mineral prices by processing services, equipment and sales for a fee or percentage.
