Extractive Insight delivers the data that powers decision-making across Africa’s extractive landscape. Our research team identifies knowledge gaps, conducts targeted studies, and curates insights that define policy, investment, and operational trends. We combine field intelligence, partner data, and sector analytics to produce practical reports that move beyond theory and drive action. Key outputs: Country and commodity briefs, policy trackers, investment outlooks, and industry perception studies.
We provide geological interpretation, data validation, and project-level technical due diligence to help clients assess asset quality and investment potential. Our in-house geoscience team ensures that exploration and mining data meets global reporting standards, while translating complex technical findings into decision-ready intelligence. Key outputs: Geological data reviews, exploration project assessments, and quality-control audits for NI 43-101, JORC, and SAMREC-compliant reporting.
