The recent pronouncement and declaration to shift Kenya from exporting raw minerals toward local processing has to be anchored in law to achieve its intended impact. @MiBeMa_2022 @HassanAliJoho @mining_MESK @KimtaiHarry businessdailyafrica.com/bd/opinion-ana…

Small-scale mining is demanding, yet rewarding. At times, you descend into a shaft and immediately question why you chose this path.

Understanding ISDS in the mining sector helps gov'ts design & implement clearer rules, issue permitting, negotiate coherent & fair contracts, keep defensible records, coordinate across agencies, & communicate credibly with investors & communities. 👉 igfmining.org/resource/inves…

Behind every safe mine and sustainable operation is dedicated labour. We celebrate you today. Happy Labour Day.

This Labour Day, we honour the strength, resilience, and dedication of every hand that powers our nation’s growth from deep within the earth. 
Happy Labour Day to all who fuel progress!

From the fields and mines to control rooms and boardrooms, your work matters. Your resilience matters. Your contribution is shaping a more sustainable and inclusive future. Happy Labor Day!

Early mornings, late nights and everything in between—today is for you. Happy Labour Day!

Australian firm, RareX, has told investors it has submitted an expression of interest for a Rare Earths prospecting licence at Mrima Hills in Kwale County.

Investor-State Dispute Settlement should no longer be a niche legal issue for mining officials. Our new brief sets out the basics of ISDS, where consent sits, which rules & institutions govern cases, & how claims have arisen in the mining sector. 👉 igfmining.org/resource/inves…

Currently participating in an insightful plenary discussion on powering Kenya’s mining future through public–private partnerships. Our focus is clear: unlocking investment, reinforcing investor confidence, and driving local value addition to ensure the sector delivers. #MICE2026

@KimtaiHarry A more responsible approach would be to reference the mineral resource estimate- the reported ounces in the ground rather than assigning a speculative monetary value to the project.

@KimtaiHarry Hon @KimtaiHarry The 680 B valuation tag on the project is inaccurate and misleading. While the gold in the ground may have a theritical value of that magnitude, this is not an appropriate basis for reporting the worth of a mining project.

Today, I held a consultative meeting with Hon. Bernard Shinali & Isulu-Bushiangala community members on the KSh 680Bn Kakamega gold project. Some of the key resolutions agreed on include the need to fast-track title deeds, finalize Resettlement Action Plan and.....

Today morning, I convened a consultative meeting with fellow PSs @GMugambi_CBS (@Forestry__Kenya) , @Eng_F_Ngeno (Environment and Climate Change) and Cyrell Wagunda (@SDPI_AM) alongside senior officials, to discuss mineral exploration in Mrima Hills.

I visited @taitataveta_cg to assess graphite prospects in the area and also toured a Tsavorite mine

Always rewarding to go back to the field. Together with the Geomine team and students from the departments of Mining at @TaitaTavetaUni and @DiscoverJKUAT under a mentorship programme organised by Geomine and @mining_MESK,

well done @CedricSimonet #ree @AltonaRareEarth
