@newslionsa: South Africa sits on some of the world’s most valuable minerals. So why does so much of the real value get created somewhere else? Economist Sthandiwe Msomi argues that resource-rich countries are not simply “underdeveloped”, they can remain trapped in systems where minerals leave before enough jobs, industries and wealth are built around them at home. South Africa holds around 80% of the world’s platinum-group-metal reserves, while Africa holds roughly 30% of global critical-mineral reserves. Yet the continent captures less than 5% of the value added around those minerals. Msomi’s challenge is simple: Africa should not just dig. It should process, manufacture and profit. If Africa owns the minerals, why does so much of the value still leave with them? #sanews #Africa #AfricanEconomics #PanAfricanism #AfricanMining
