Unlocking Sierra Leone’s Gold Potential

Africa Terra Resources is building a responsible, small-scale gold mining operation in Sierra Leone — producing gold today, expanding tomorrow. 


Our modular gravity processing plant uses zero cyanide, zero mercury, and zero acid. We generate real cash flow while investing in the communities and landscapes that make our 

Why Sierra Leone?

 Our 169 km² licence area in Kono and Kenema Districts adjoins the Birimian Greenstone Belt — the same geology that hosts the nearby Baomahun deposit (5.81 Moz, JORC). High-density artisanal activity across the full AOI confirms near-surface, payable gold grade. We hold a signed community access consent from Paramount Chief Abdul Fatau Akayese II, Gbani Chiefdom, and are actively progressing our Small-Scale Mining Licence (SSML) with the National Minerals Agency. 

 Sierra Leone sits within one of the world's great gold belts — and we are already on the ground.

Our Competitive Advantages

In Production — Not Just Exploration.

 We are commissioning our modular gravity plant in Q4 2026, targeting first gold by December 2026. While others are still drilling, we are building. Our 350 t/day plant generates USD 1M+ monthly EBITDA at steady state. opportunities in Sierra Leone mining.

Community-First, Licence-Backed.

Our community access consent is signed. A minimum 70% local employment commitment and a Community Development Fund (0.5% of gross revenue) are contractually locked in. Our Sierra Leone COO, Alpha Sesay, maintains direct relationships with the Kono and Kenema Chieftaincies. 

Scalable Production Plattform.

Our milestone-gated (MVMP) production platform scales from 100 t/day at commissioning to 350 t/day by mid-2027. Exploration on our 169 km² AOI continues in parallel — funded from operating cash flow, not additional investor capital.
