Botswana tops in Africa for mining...again

Released last Wednesday, the Survey captures the views of 429 mining executives operating in 51 jurisdictions assessed by Fraser Institute researchers between June 1 and 30, 2010.

The researchers ranked jurisdictions - which include countries and geographic distinctions within countries - according to the Survey participants' responses to 11 policy areas, which collectively determine the attractiveness of setting up and operating mining ventures in the jurisdictions.
