Overview of Kouramoutou, Gabon
Kulamutu is an important inland city of the Gabonese Republic, located in the province of Ogooué-Lolo, in the rainforest region of east-central Gabon. As a hub for mineral resources and forestry, the city's economy is based on manganese mining and wood processing, and it has a transportation link to the port of Port-Gentil.
Natural and human characteristics
The city is surrounded by dense rainforest and is rich in biodiversity. The population is predominantly Aboriginal, including the Fang, and retains a traditional tribal culture, while incorporating the characteristics of a modern mining community. The climate is typically equatorial, with high temperatures and heavy rainfall throughout the year.
Economy and Resources
Kulamutu has some of the largest manganese reserves in the world, and the Moanda Manganese Region is Gabon's core export base. Sustainable forestry programs and ecotourism are emerging as new economic directions, reflecting Gabon's green economy development strategy.
Infrastructure and Challenges
Urban infrastructure is improving, but transportation is still dependent on roads and navigation on the Ogooué River. The challenge of balancing resource development with rainforest conservation is a prime example of Gabon's sustainable development model.
