Chief Executive Officer of the recently established ASGM GUYANA – Artisanal Small Gold Miners Guyana (ASGM) John Applewhite-Hercules earlier this week told the Stabroek Business that the focus of his new company is to work with both current and prospective small miners and potential investors in pursuit of their investment ambitions in the gold mining sector.
Speaking with the Stabroek Business, Applewhite-Hercules disclosed that ASGM Guyana was specifically concerned with equipping both current and intended small miners to understand and comply with the country’s mining/environmental laws and codes of practice while equipping them with skills in map reading/GPS navigation, entrepreneurship and mineral prospecting for gold and other minerals.
