How could an abundance of natural resources be detrimental to a country's development?

Whether the development of a country slows down or increases depends on how the government uses or handles its valuable resources. Countries such as the Congo and Sierra Leone are examples of how an abundance of valuable resources have slowed down the development of their country.
