Valuable Information About Moroccan Minerals And Fossils

By Joshua Rogers


Mineral deposits are a source of wealth. They are what have built great civilizations and countries. Ancient empires like Roman and Babylonian empires owe their success to mineral wealth. The same also applies to leading world powers such as USA, Russia, China, and Qatar. Russia has large natural gas reserves. In Africa, successful countries have minerals. The story of the success of Morocco is all about Moroccan minerals and fossils. This country has varied types of minerals in different parts of the country. There are also remains of ancient creatures such as dinosaurs. Morocco is blessed with natural resources.

Apart from having minerals, another important thing in a country is manpower. If the workforce is not big, a country will have to import skilled labor from another country and that will cost a lot of money. Luckily for Morocco, a good percentage of the population is educated. Thus, there are sufficient engineers, finance professionals and others, for the mining sector.

Mining is a technology intensive affair. Some of the technologies involved cost billions of dollars. More than one million dollars can be paid just to use a particular patent. Financing a mining project is not the easiest thing to do. There will be need for a number of local investors to team up. There might also be need for foreign monies.

People from other countries love to invest in Morocco. This is because this is one of the few countries in Africa that has a good investment climate. It is easy to open a company in Morocco. The whole affair can take a number of days. There is also a fairly developed banking system. Moroccan financial markets are very stable and advanced.

Morocco is also loved world over because of its political stability. In some African countries, violence and chaos are the order of the day. That is not the case in Morocco because there is a high level of peace, order and stability. In this nation, elections have never been rigged. The good political climate has greatly helped mining companies.

Morocco is largely dependent on minerals. A small percentage is used locally to produce consumer goods and for industrial applications. Most of the mineral products are exported to other countries. The GDP of Morocco is big because of mineral exports. The big GDP has greatly increased the per capita income. Moroccans have a high quality of life compared to other Africans.

Phosphate is the number one Moroccan export. This country has one of the largest phosphate reserves in the world. Other phosphate producers are USA and China. Morocco produces raw phosphate and exports it to other countries. It also has industries that transform raw phosphate into useful products that are later exported. Finished goods usually make more profits than unfinished ones.

Morocco is an economic power house in North Africa. It has a thriving economy. This country is well managed and has relative political stability. Morocco is an important player in the global economy. This is because of various important Moroccan mineral exports. There are minerals that are only found in Morocco. The largest mineral exports of Morocco are phosphate, silver, lead and copper.
