Uganda has discovered $1 trillion worth of rare minerals, a month after discovering 31 million tonnes of gold deposits worth $12.8 trillion.
These rare earth minerals discovered at the Busoga area of Uganda, include dysprosium cerium, erbium, europlum, gadolinium, holmium, and lanthanum.
According to the Minister of State for Energy, Mr. Sidronius Opolot, the discovered deposits are among the largest in the world.
Southern China is currently the largest producer of some of the said minerals with Uganda expected to reach a viable spot on the list of producers soon.
According to local reports, the minerals are said to be worth more than the country’s return from Crude oil, a billion-dollar revenue maker for the East African nation.
