Grand Est Businesses Target West African Mining Markets
From November 18 to 22, 2026, the French Mining Days @ SIREXE will take place in Abidjan aimed at promoting regional companies in West Africa's mining sector. This initiative, backed by Business France and the Grand Est region, enables local firms to engage with key players and explore opportunities in countries like Côte d'Ivoire and Guinea.

The French Mining Days @ SIREXE will occur from November 18 to 22, 2026, in Abidjan, focusing on the West African mining sector. Côte d'Ivoire's gold production is projected at 58 tonnes in 2024, with a goal of 62 tonnes in 2025, while Guinea boasts significant bauxite reserves of 145 million tonnes.
Companies from the Grand Est region will showcase their expertise and seek partnerships through various networking events and BtoB meetings at the event. The initiative, supported financially by the Grand Est region (up to 50% of eligible costs), is crucial for accessing expanding markets. The registration deadline is September 30, 2026.
