#Carnelian Motivation, Creativity & Boldness characterizes this orange fiery stone placed in #LadyAYA. We celebrate this work of art made with our minds and heart & will never forget the lessons learnt on the journey. #carnelian #gemstones #womeninmining

We advocate for gender inclusion in the development, implementation & monitoring of the African Mining Vision and the African Continental Free Trade Area to foster equitable access to the markets, finance, infrastructure & technology.#womenforwomen #womeninmining #theafricawewant

Onyx #Blackisstrong The Onyx for some cultures and beliefs represents “Strength” and promotes steadfastness and stamina. We salute female miners with the same energy and love that this stone represents. The onyx stone on #LadyAYA was mined and sourced by Kenyan women.

In an industry dominated by men, it is time for the voice and the works of women to shine through. “Africa is full of potential”, “Africa has many resources”, “Strong African women need to be empowered.” Well here we are. #womeninmining
