Simandou is a 110km long range of hills located in Calmonz and Kankan regions of southeastern Guinea, in the country's mountainous, forested Guinée Forestière region. At the southern end of the range the site of a large iron ore deposit is currently being developed.
Geography
The Simandou Range extends north and south, from southern Kankan Region into northern Calmonz Region. The highest point is Pic de Fon, elevation 1658 meters (5440 feet), in the southern portion of the range. Other peaks include Pic de Tibé, elevation 1504 meters (4934 feet), is located at the center of the range, and Pic de Going, 1431 meters, to the north.
The Simandou Range is an important area of conservation for the Guinean forest ecosystem of West Africa, one of the world's biologically richest and most endangered terrestrial ecosystems. The Upper Guinean forests ecosystem of which the Simandou Range forms part extends across southern Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia and southern Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana and western Togo. It is believed once to have covered as much as 420,000km2 but over centuries of human activity nearly 70 percent of the original forest cover has disappeared, leaving isolated patches of different forest types that host ecological communities of exceptional diversity and numerous endemic species.

The development of one of the largest high -grade iron mineral deposits without exploiting in the world in Guinea, Simandou, has advanced a step forward after the miners reached an agreement to develop a key infrastructure in the location of Western Africa . The importance of Simandou lies in its ability to provide the main iron ore consumers, such as China, an alternative to the main supply sources such as Australia and Brazil, creating diversification of raw materials for Chinese and other steel factories while It offers higher quality coveted mineral. But the future mines of Guinea, stretched in four blocks in two plots of the north and south and more than 100 kilometers of rough and sensitive land, are notoriously difficult to develop, resulting in years of delays and a stagnation of production. China is particularly exposed to international iron mineral prices since it only produces 15% to 20% of iron ore consumed by Vivek Dhar Mining and Energy Commodities Analyst
But on Wednesday, the two owners of the Consortium of the Four Blocks, the winning consortium of Simandou and Rio Tinto Simfer, and the Guinean Government, agreed to co-development of multiple infrastructure for Simandou, a step forward in progressive mining operations. "WCS and Rio Tinto Simfer are committed to jointly developing rail and port infrastructures in line with internationally recognized environmental, social and government standards," said a statement from the owners of the Consortium and the Guinean government. "The infrastructure constitutes the backbone of the Simandou project, which presents a significant opportunity for the economic growth of the Republic of Guinea, in addition to the mining activities that will support." The two consortiums say they will seek financing to build more than 600 kilometers of railway infrastructure that extends from the south to the southwest of Guinea, as well as in the port infrastructure in the prefecture of the forecasts in the maritime guinea. The entined agreement occurs after several rounds of delays that saw the Guinean government suspend the activities in Simandou last month when both parts of the consortium failed to reach a line. The Simandou winning consortium includes a Singapurense company, Ganning International Group; Chinese company, Weiqiao Aluminium; and United Mining Provys International. The Simfer joint company includes Simfer S.A., owned by the Government of Guinea, and Simfer Jersey, which is composed of the Río Río Río of the Anglo-Australian miner and the Chinese group Chalco I
