About

In April of 2023, the Government of Suriname approved a plan to issue an open call to interested parties to develop the bauxite deposits in West-Suriname, in an area known as “Bakhuis”. To this end, the President of the Republic of Suriname, His Excellency Chadrikapersad Santokhi, instated the “Presidential Commission West-Suriname Bakhuis Development” in the second quarter of 2023.

This Commission has collected all data with respect to West-Suriname bauxite, hydroelectric potential, infrastructure, etc., and has worked hard on establishing the process that will be used to identify and attract investors.

This website’s purpose is to inform interested parties of the process, and provide the necessary submission information, in order to successfully participate in this open call for investors.
