The Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA), the World Bank’s insurance arm, is considering support for the Nimba iron-ore mine in Guinea.

The Mount Nimba nature reserve has been listed as a World Heritage site since 1981 but classified as “in danger” since 1992, in part due to the threat of iron-ore mining.
