PROJECT PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT GUINEA BOKE BAUXITE PROJECT (LOANS Sl-GUI, 557-GUI & 766-GUI) PREFACE This report is an audit of performance under the Boke'Bauxite Project, for which Loans Sl-GUI of March 30, 1966 in the amount of US$1.7 million, 557-GUI of September 18, 1968 in the amount of US$64.5 million and 766-GUI of June 25, 1971 in the amount of US$9.0 million were closed, fully disbursed, on May 31, 1967, December 31, 1972 and March 31, 1974, respectively. UNDP Grant GUI/72/006 of US$49,000 for technical assistance for the management of railway, port and townsite,and for which the Bank is executing agency,is still being disbursed. This report is based on a review of the attached Project Completion Report (PCR)P/of March 1976 issued by the Western Africa Regional Office, reviews of the project files and transcript of the Executive Directors' meeting which considered the project, and discussions with Bank staff members. A joint OED/Regional staff mission visited Guinea in October 1975 in connection with the preparation of the PCR and the performance audit memorandum. OED staff contributed to the preparation of the section of the PCR dealing with the economic impact of the project and commented on earlier PCR drafts. These comments are reflected in the attached PCR, with whose main findings OED is in agreement. The audit memorandum ex- pands on the question of the split of economic benefits of the project, the long-run returns for Guinea and the institutional development aspects. The valuable assistance provided by officials of the Guinea Government in the preparation of this report is gratefully acknowledged. 1/ Annexes on the Port, Railway Component, Mine and Factory, and OFAB Management and Organization are not attached and are available in OED on request.

PROJECT PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT GUINEA BOKE BAUXITE PROJECT (LOANS Sl-GUI, 557-GUI & 766-GUI) HIGHLIGHTS This project provided a total of US$75.2 million in Bank loans to the Republic of Guinea to help finance the infrastructure part of a bauxite mining project. This part included port and railway facilities, housing for the staff, and general services for the townships. The final cost of the project in constant prices is close to the appraisal fore- cast. First bauxite shipments took place about 13 months later than expected. The economic rate of return of the project is higher than ex- pected, mainly because of higher prices for bauxite exports. The project has given rise to some criticism by the Government, chiefly concerning the general Bank approach to the project and the townsite design. However, given the complexity of the project and all the major difficulties en- countered, the Bank's role can be considered a success. The following points may be of particular interest: Reinvestment of economic benefits (paras. 3.09-3.11 and PCR, Section 7 and Appendix 2); Issue of the split of economic benefits of the project (paras. 3.01-3.08, 4.02 and PCR, Appendix 1); Performance under the institutional agreements for the opera- tion of the project (para. 3.12 and PCR, paras. 4.03, 5.06-5.08 and 6.01-6.07); Expatriate manpower and inadequate training of local personnel (paras. 3.13-3.14 and PCR, Appendix 2); Question of townsite size and services provided (paras.
