MBI (Mining Business and Investment) East Africa 2012 will attract a senior international audience pre-qualified by our own research referral system. The conference will include over 20 presentations by industry experts and government officials, a CEO led panel discussion, various networking breaks, an exhibition, lunch, a cocktail reception and a gala dinner. MBI East Africa 2012 is designed to provide representatives of the mining industry with the information, tools and contacts they need to move their business projects and aspirations forward. The conference will be packed with multiple networking opportunities among East African and international guests.

Historically, the attention for mining and exploration of the continent’s vast natural resources has been mainly focused on South Africa, Ghana and Congo. Understandably so, exploration in these countries started much earlier and its findings prompted it. However, with the prices of metals having come to substantially higher levels than ever before, the search for metals and minerals has expanded, in fact spread to almost all over the African continent.

After the successful coming to production and development of new mines in what are called the new mining countries, such as Mali, Tanzania, Algeria, Egypt, Eritrea, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Niger, the attention is spreading further. One of the most recent and very interesting parts of Africa that is being ‘discovered’ is East Africa, a vast area comprising the countries of Sudan, South Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, Djibouti, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi. Illustrative may be that for the first time ever, a real mining conference was held on Mining Business & Investment East Africa last year.

The yearly event is co-organised and supported by the East African Community, Ministry of Environmental and Mineral Resources Kenya, Kenya Investment Authority, Kenya Chamber of Mines, the European Gold Center and Prescon UK.

Sessions will center on the principal issues facing the East African mining sector today and in the future. Industry leaders, in particular, will take a closer look at the evolution and direction of the market and balance views on the ever-critical traditional and new policies and legislation, infrastructure plans and technology maximization.

PARTICIPANTS WILL INCLUDE:

♦ Mining and exploration companies

♦ Investment Banks and Brokers

♦ Government Officials

♦ Technology Equipment and Service Providers

♦ Professional Advisory (consultants, lawyers and financial advisors)

I am very pleased that there is now a conference on the resource development in East Africa. Rightfully so. You can be sure that the world’s attention will further expand into what in my opinion is one of the most interesting region of Africa, the huge area comprising the countries of Sudan, South Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, Djibouti, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi. An enormous challenge but above all a tremendous opportunity for all parties concerned. Close cooperation will be necessary, based on information, vision, trust and dedication. But also confidence, government support, capital, foreign participation and fairness. This conference is about all these ingredients. It is my conviction that opportunity knocks, it is time for a new chapter in Africa’s in Africa’s mineral history. The heading of the chapter should

be: East Africa - a vast potential to be tapped!

Henk J. Krasenberg

EAST AFRICA COMMUNITY The East African Community (EAC) is the regional intergovernmental organisation of the Republics of Kenya, Uganda, the United Republic of Tanzania, Republic of Rwanda and Republic of Burundi with its headquarters in Arusha, Tanzania.

The Treaty for Establishment of the East African Community was signed on 30 November 1999 and entered into force on 7 July 2000 following its ratification by the original three Partner States – Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. The Republic of Rwanda and the Republic of Burundi acceded to the EAC Treaty on 18 June 2007 and became full Members of the Community with effect from 1 July 2007.

MISSION AND VISIONThe Vision of EAC is a prosperous, competitive, secure, stable and politically united East Africa; and the Missionis to widen and deepen Economic, Political, Social and Culture integration in order to improve the quality of life of the people of East Africa through increased competitiveness, value added production, trade and investments.

THE EAC’S CORE VALUES ARE: •Professionalism

•Accountability

•Transparency

•Teamwork

•UnityinDiversity

•AllegiancetoEACideals

AIMS AND OBJECTIVESThe EAC aims at widening and deepening co-operation among the Partner States in, among others, political, economic and social fields for their mutual benefit. To this extent the EAC countries established a Customs Union in 2005 and a Common Market in 2010. The next phase of the integration will see the bloc enter into a Monetary Union and ultimately become a Political Federation of the East African States.

ENLARGEMENT OF THE COMMUNITYThe realisation of a large regional economic bloc encompassing Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda with a combined population of more than 130 million people (2010*), land area of 1.82 million sq kilometres and a combined Gross Domestic Product of $74.5 billion (2009*), bears great strategic and geopolitical significance and prospects of a renewed and reinvigorated East African Community.

CURRENT STATUSThe regional integration process is at a high pitch at the moment as reflected by the encouraging progress of the East African Customs Union and the establishment in 2010 of the Common Market.

The negotiations for the East African Monetary Union, which commenced in 2011, and fast tracking the process towards East African Federation all underscore the serious determination of the East African leadership and citizens to construct a powerful and sustainable East African economic and political bloc.

INTRODUCTION

Henk J. Krasenberg

E U R O P E A N G O L D C E N T R EGOLDVIEW – GOLDVIEW ALERT

MINING IN AFRICA – MINING IN EUROPE – MINING IN MEXICOCOMPANY REPORTS

European Gold Centre analyzes and comments on gold, other metals & minerals and international mining and exploration companies in perspective to the rapidly changing world

of economics, finance and investments. Through its publications, The Centre informs international investors, both institutional and private, primarily in Europe but also

worldwide, who have an interest in natural resources and investing in resource companies.The Centre also provides assistance to international mining and exploration companies in

building and expanding their European investor following and shareholdership.

Henk J. KrasenbergAfter my professional career in security analysis, investment advisory, porfolio management and investment banking, I made the decision to concentrate on and specialize in the world of metals, minerals and mining finance. From 1983 to 1992, I have been writing and consulting

about gold, other metals and minerals and resource companies. The depressed metal markets of the early 1990's led me to a temporary shift. I pursued one of my other hobbies and started an art gallery in contemporary abstracts, awaiting a new cycle in metals and mining. That started to come in the early 2000's and I returned to metals and

mining in 2002 with the European Gold Centre.With my GOLDVIEW reports, I have built an extensive institutional investor following in

Europe and more of a private investor following in the rest of the world. In 2007, I introduced my MINING IN AFRICA publication, to be followed by MINING IN EUROPE

in 2010 and MINING IN MEXICO in 2012. The next addition will be MINING IN COLOMBIA, scheduled to be launched after this fall.
