Mining industry of Togo

The mining industry of Togo is centred mainly around the extraction of phosphate, ranking it 19th in world production.

More minerals identified but yet to be brought into production mode are manganese, bauxite, gypsum, iron ore, marble, rutile, and zinc.

However, diamond production under the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme has shown a decline.

The Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) was in the process of further validation with the International Secretariat.
