As part of the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of bauxite mining in Guyana, two main
activities will culminate the 2016 observation next Friday at the site of that Arch at the junction of Casaurina Drive.
According to Chief Executive Officer of Linmine Secretariat and member of the planning committee Emmet Alves, the unveiling of the arch will be done by President David Granger. Alves noted that the launching of the Centennial Magazine will also be launched.
