Great idea.

Let's not forget that Montepuez Ruby Mine is situated just not in Africa, but in a region with an Islamic state insurgency that took over whole cities a few years back in Cabo delgado. It's a bit more than "Political unrest" in the country. It's war in the mine's area. Seems that now the African coalition helped by Rwanda and South Africa is controlling the area a bit. Faberge is very interesting.

I apologize if I didn’t emphasize the seriousness of the political unrest enough. Insurgency is a real and serious concern with MRM. That said, both Gemfields and the local governments are aware of this issue and are taking serious measures to prevent any bad situations.
