Abstract
In our series on mining in the SADCC countries Jerker Carlsson looks at Botswana, “one of the few buoyant economies” in Africa today.
This article in our series on mining in the SADCC countries provides an insight into the basic structural features of Botswana and its mining industry.
The article is divided into two parts. Part one attempts to characterize the Botswana economy and the role of the mining sector. Part two provides an analysis of the mining industry with respect to ownership, production and the government's mining policy.
