Nevsun in Eritrea : Dealing With a Dictator - the fifth estate
When a small Vancouver mining company Nevsun struck gold in a remote corner of Africa, it started with so much promise. In remote Eritrea, Nevsun built a mine that was generating $700 million in profits in its first four years of operation. But it was also generating a lot of controversy – because Nevsun was partnered with a brutal dictatorship that runs the country and controls 40% of the mine. That has led to allegations by the UN and Human Rights Watch that the regime has used conscripted military labour in the mine. The Eritrea government has also been accused of funneling arms to the terrorist group al-Shabaab.
Nevsun denies the allegations of human rights abuses and insists it is a “template for responsible international business.”
What is the price of doing business with a dictator? Mark Kelley investigates.
