To Bélinga or not to Bélinga?
This research paper examines China's strategic investment in Gabon's mining sector, focusing on the Bélinga iron ore project. While the project is intended to help Gabon diversify its oil-dependent economy and provide China with essential minerals, it has faced significant delays due to political transitions, price volatility, and environmental concerns. The project utilizes a 'barter-like' model where infrastructure is funded by future mineral extraction.
