    The consequences of Egypt's insatiable appetite for energy is becoming more pronounced. Amidst broader economic instability and reduced production rates of oil and natural gas the energy deficit is manifesting in electrical shortages throughout Cairo, Alexandria, Luxor, and Aswan. Electricity consumption in Egypt peaks during the summer months, in part due to soaring temperatures and Ramadan1.

    Again, you've got a number of areas of concern. Make minerals one of them, but then decide early on whether it's a major player in your area (which it probably is). Try to identify the minerals with the most commercial value. That will help you make recommendations.
