ONA TALK – Dr Mamadou Ciré Diallo, legal expert in natural resources law...
On the sidelines of Mining Indaba 2026 in Cape Town, Or Noir Africa had the privilege of interviewing Mamadou Coulibaly, lawyer and co-founder of Satis Partners, a leading pan-African business law firm. At the heart of today’s strategic discussions among African states, this question raises major issues: ✔️ Optimising state revenue ✔️ Attractiveness to investors ✔️ Balanced sharing of risks ✔️ Sovereignty over natural resources. Mr Coulibaly offered detailed legal insight into the fundamental differences between these two models, emphasising that the choice is a strategic assessment rather than an ideological opposition, taking account of each country’s geological, economic and institutional context. The discussion confirms that contractual governance remains a key tool for fairer, more sustainable mining that benefits African economies. Ongoing news on our website: www.ornoirafrica.com.

Youssou J. DIOP, President of BT Africa Mining, discusses their participation in Mining Indaba!
Dr Mamadou Ciré Diallo discussed the strategic panel promoting the Africa Mining Vision, emphasising strong partnerships, appropriate legal support tools, fair contract negotiations and lasting capacity building. This key session brought together mining stakeholders—public decision-makers, legal experts, investors and institutional participants—with a common goal: exploring practical approaches to strengthen the legal and contractual frameworks of African mining projects. As natural resource governance becomes increasingly decisive for inclusive, sustainable growth, stronger negotiation skills and better mining contracts are essential tools for maximising benefits for states and communities. Constructive dialogue, high-level discussions and a shared vision confirm that the future of African mining depends on sound legal foundations and balanced partnerships. #kebetu #rig #Africa #fid #licences #offshore #oilfield #oilandgas #oilgas #gaz #energy #naturalgas #gas #mining #partnership #world #new #investments #capital #integration #operations #innovation #management #future #markets #economy #economics #investing #alternativeenergy #sales #strategy #finances #journalism #consultants #share #ona #MI26 #MiningIndaba2026 #StrongerTogether #MakeYourMark Ongoing news on our website: www.ornoirafrica.com.
