Zambia invites investors into a critical phase of its mining transformation, as it spotlights its ambitious aims to expand copper output and capitalise on its rich deposits of cobalt, graphite, and nickel. The 2026 showcase will discuss the Ministry's drive to unlock more than 40 newly released mining licenses, the launch of a special-purpose vehicle to hold at least 30 % state participation in incoming projects, and the push for downstream processing and value addition.
