Kenya’s mining ministry on Wednesday said the country’s senate had passed a mining bill which will give the government a 10% stake in new projects, taking it a step closer becoming law. The bill was approved by the national assembly last year and now needs to be signed by President Uhuru Kenyatta, which is usually a formality.
Kenya exports titanium, fluorspar and manganese and has reserves of coal, niobium and rare earths, but mining currently accounts for less than 1% of its economic output.
