Koupela, Kouritenga Jul 24, 2019 (Issuewire.com) - Davide Bongiovanni and Alessio Vinassa are the founders of Inti Gold Global Sarl, a company operating in the gold mining sector, based in Burkina Faso. Starting in Italy with a dream, today they completed the construction of an open-cast mine that allows the extraction of gold while respecting the environment and local citizens. Project financed with the support of small operators, today Inti Gold Global welcomes 20 million euros of financing from investors in England.
Two Italian entrepreneurs decided in 2010 to start a new project away from their homeland, to create what would be the turning point in their lives. The dream was great; to base the market activity of a product whose demand is always greater than its supply: gold.
Davide Bongiovanni and Alessio Vinassa eight years ago chose Burkina Faso to host their project. Burkina Faso, one of the poorest countries in the world, possessed an immense treasure. Gold strands ran for kilometres underground were gold nuggets remained trapped in a rock. In the superficial layers, between sand and gravel, gold dust could be felt.
Burkina Faso was chosen both for its vast presence of gold and for its lack of oil. Black gold has always been a reason for conflict, and its absence guaranteed a peaceful nation.
Riding in a 1995 Grand Cherokee, Davide and Alessio began searching for land, covering 70,000 kilometres of dirt roads in six months.
In 2013, Davide and Alessio sublet the first field. They invested 50,000 euros to buy the first excavator, a truck, a backhoe loader and two mills. After weeks of sweat, work and peanut-based meals, the first gold saw the light.
The deeper you dig, the more chances of finding large amounts of gold you have. Numerous studies of the ground identified gold veins at about 30 meters depth, which will be reached by excavation after excavation. The first parts of the machinery to extract the gold were assembled, and the first small nuggets were extracted and cleaned.
The project began to attract attention and the first investors made their appearance. Thanks to their contribution, a new concession was purchased, with the aim of creating an open-air mine large enough and deep enough to reach the gold veins, where the metal is mostly found. Today, about two hundred Burkinabè are working in Inti Gold Global 2, in the role of workers, engineers, cooks and geologists.
The first investor funds were lured into investing with Inti Gold Global in the gold sector at the end of 2018, and today they are ready to take part in the project. This will allow a decisive acceleration: more funds mean faster advances, to have all the methods and machinery necessary. This marks an exponential increase in the value of the project and of every share currently held by investors who from the beginning have supported what, only 9 years ago, was just an idea.
