Bristow added, "Considering the continent's vast mineral wealth, however, it still has a long way to go to deliver on its full potential." Bristow continued, "Investors are deterred by the political and infrastructural risks associated with Africa, but in Côte d'Ivoire we have shown how these challenges can be overcome by a true partnership between a mining company, the government and the people."
