Pepel

1

Pepel is a coastal town in the Port Loko District in the Northern Province of Sierra Leone.

Port

Pepel has a port in the Sierra Leone River used for shipping bulk iron ore via the mining company African Minerals.

Railway

Pepel is connected by a gauge 84 km long railway to an iron ore mine at Marampa. It is proposed to introduce a more efficient balloon loop at the port. An extension of this line to a deeper port at Tagrin Point is also proposed.
