Burkina Faso, officially called The Republic of Burkina Faso, is a landlocked country located in Western Africa. It’s bordered by six countries: Mali to its north, Niger to its east, Benin to its south-east, Togo and Ghana to its south and Ivory Coast to its south-west. It has an area of 274 900 square kilometres (105 900 sq mi), with an estimated population of about 15 million. Burkina Faso is one of Africa’s largest producers of cotton, and cotton remains its principal export. Mining accounts for nearly 10% of gross domestic product (GDP). Phosphates, gold, diamonds, and manganese—the country’s main minerals—contribute to two-thirds of export revenue, according to Burkina Faso government data. The country also has deposits of copper, iron ore, and other minerals used in construction and manufacturing.
