my concerns have little to do with the untapped wealth, which I believe little is known about yet, but with the crazy ability for that contient to revolt and start killing each other over disagreements.

As in the recent civil war in Libya where westerns were fleeing the region so as not to get caught in the middle and killed just cause, the same is true for most areas in Africa.

Doesn't take much to spark a war over there, which would shut down production.... never mind if the the local gov't got a hair up it's but and decided to nationalize the company.

Crazy little things like that make me more nervous about investing money in a company doing business in Africa than even the logistics of moving the various minerals they are extracting.
