Our Leadership & Partners
Lake Victoria Gold has assembled a highly experienced team with a track record of developing, financing and operating mining projects in Africa with management, directors and partners owning more than 60% of the shares. Notably, the company is grateful for the validation that comes with the support and equity investment from Barrick Gold and recent strategic partnership with Taifa Group, owned by Tanzanian tycoon Rostam Aziz.
