Headline Mineral and Groundwater Surveys in Upper Volta

Caption Description Upper Volta’s 5-year Plan (1963-1967), drawn up with UN expert services, places high priority on agricultural development, but also aims at diversifying the economy—particularly through exploitation of mineral resources. The UN Development Programme (UNDP), with the UN as Executive Agency, is now assisting Upper Volta in assessing the potential of groundwater resources and the best means for their development; and in evaluating the economic feasibility of exploiting certain promising mineral occurrences, while training the local staff in the use of modern investigation techniques. Upon completion of this project, Upper Volta is expected to publish its results, and to make arrangements for development of these resources with potential investors. The knowledge gained by the local staff will enable the Government to undertake further mineral and groundwater exploration programmes.
