The heart of Tadrock's operations lies in the Kono and Kenema Districts, located in the eastern region of Sierra Leone. These districts are rich in mineral resources and hold significant cultural and economic importance for the nation.
Kono District, with its capital in Koidu Town, is a bustling hub of activity. The district has several significant towns like Motema, Yengema, Tombodu, Jaiama Nimikor, and Sewafe. Each of these towns contributes to the district's vibrant community and economy.
Adjacent to Kono is the Kenema District, with its capital being the city of Kenema. As the third-largest city in Sierra Leone, Kenema is a major economic powerhouse in the Eastern Province. With a population of over 200,000 as of 2015, the city plays a pivotal role in the region's development.
One of Tadrock's defining characteristics is its commitment to local development. The company's operations are characterised by efficient use of modern equipment, streamlined large-scale processes, and a minimal reliance on external infrastructure. This operational efficiency ensures that Tadrock remains competitive and reduces its environmental footprint.
Furthermore, Tadrock places a significant emphasis on employing the local workforce. This provides employment opportunities for the local communities and ensures that the mining operations' benefits are directly channelled back into the region.
With a keen focus on maximizing the potential of its existing assets, Tadrock is poised for growth. The company is strategically positioned to capitalize on low-risk, cost-efficient expansion opportunities. Given the rich mineral reserves in the Kono and Kenema Districts, the future looks promising for Tadrock and the communities it serves.
