Bong Mines

Bong Mines is an iron mining town in Bong County, central Liberia. The Bong Mining Company, backed mainly by German investors, began exporting ore from the Bong Range in 1965 by rail to Monrovia. Mining stopped during the civil war of the 1990s and has since been revived by Chinese investment.
