In this episode of Voices of Africa, we speak to Stewart Bailey about how the company’s long-term investment at the Siguiri mine is driving deep social change. This includes a revolutionary public-private health partnership model, strengthening its social license to operate, and building a genuinely Guinean team amidst the country's rapid transformation.

A dream forged in iron: The Simandou story with Aboubacar Koulibaly and Ismael Diakité
The Simandou project in Guinea is the largest greenfield integrated mine and infrastructure project in development in Africa. Unlike mining’s traditional “pit to port” model, Simandou promises to touch every region of the country, bringing development to hitherto neglected communities and transforming Guinea into a key player in the global steel industry.
Kicking off Voices of Africa in 2025, Aboubacar Koulibaly and Ismael Diakité reveal details of this monumental project dubbed the 'backbone of Guinea's economy' and progress towards production of first ore in November 2025.
