The availability of diverse and untapped mineral resources, such as gold, copper, ilmenite, tantalum, soda ash, limestone, salt, niobium, fluorspar, coal, and rare earth elements. These minerals have high demand and value in the global market and could generate significant revenues for the country. The government of Kenya has conducted country-wide airborne geophysical surveys to generate new exploration targets and to update the geological map of Kenya.
