  • Eradicating Poverty and Unifying Guyana
    NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY Eradicating Poverty and Unifying Guyana A Civil Society Document - AN OVERVIEW - I GUYANA - BASIC INFORMATION • Guyana, with an area of 83,000 square miles or 215,000 square kilometres, is located on the northern coast of South America, and is the only English-speaking country on that continent. It is bounded on the north by the Atlantic Ocean, on the east by Surinam, on the south and south-west by Brazil, and on the west and north-west by Venezuela. • Guyana is physically divided into four types of landforms: (i) a flat coastal, clayey belt which is about 4.5 feet below sea level, and in which most of its agricultural activity occurs; (ii) a sand belt, to the south of the coastal belt, which includes the Intermediate Savannas; (iii) an undulating, central peneplain which comprises more than half of the country’s area, and in which are located lush, almost pristine, tropical forests, and extensive mineral deposits. This landform stretches from the sand belt to the country’s southern boundary and encompasses, also, the Rupununi Savannas which border Brazil; and (iv) the highlands which are to be found in the midwestern area. This portion of the Guiana Highlands includes the Pakaraima mountain range. • Guyana has a plentitude of natural resources: fertile agricultural lands on the coastal plain and in the riverain areas; vast areas of tropical hardwood forests of various ecosystems and with a multitude of plant and animal species; abundant fish and shrimping grounds, both in its numerous rivers and in the Atlantic Ocean to its north; and a wide variety of minerals, including gold, diamonds, a range of semi-precious stones, bauxite and manganese.

  • Grade 8 Social Studies Week 12 Lesson 1
    Ministry of Education Secondary Engagement Programme September 2020 Social Studies Grade 8 WEEK TWELVE LESSON ONE (1) Topic: Mineral Resources Sub Topic: Gold, Diamond and Bauxite Objective: Students will: Describe the mining operations Locate on a map where these are mined. Concept: Resources are the living and the non -living things which can be developed and made useful by man. Guyana has many resources which can be used to bring in revenue. Content: MINERAL RESOURCES Mineral resources form one category of natural resources. Mineral resources are formed naturally in the soil/land. They include petroleum, coal, salt, manganese and copper. Guyana has a wealth of mineral resources and these include precious and semi-precious stones, bauxite, sand and stone. Guyana also has vast deposits of kaolin as well as small deposits of petroleum, but these have not been fully exploited. 128 Ministry of Education Secondary Engagement Programme September 2020 Social Studies Grade 8 USES OF OUR MINERAL RESOURCES Bauxite: Mining for bauxite takes place primarily at Linden, Kwakwani and Aroaima in Administrative Region 10. This is more or less in the Sand and Clay Natural Region of Guyana. This mineral after extraction is processed into aluminium to be used for making pots and pans, roof sheeting and the chassis for aeroplanes. Gold and diamond: Gold and diamond are our precious minerals. These are mined mostly in the mountainous areas of Guyana. The main mining communities are located in the Cuyuni-Mazaruni-Potaro area. Diamond in particular is mined for in the Kamarang, Kurupung and Issano areas. Gold is a mineral that is used extensively in the manufacture of jewellery-rings, necklaces, bands, pendants and chains.
