President Goodluck Jonathan gave the assurance in Perth, Australia at an interactive dinner with leading Australian mining and solid minerals investors.

He said the measure would also enhance the efforts of his administration to create more job opportunities for the country’s youth.

The President declared that he was passionately committed to the full development of Nigeria’s solid minerals sector because of its huge potentials for boosting the national economy.
