Driving sustainable investment in African Mining

Future-Proofing African mining today - Uncovering the Top 5 elements for success

  1. The government factor: A landscape that offers investment-friendly options for increased infrastructure development spend, improved permitting processes and downstream value-addition is the dream. Can it be turned Into reality?
  2. The investment factor: Future demand for metals has never looked brighter, but are investors willing to provide the required capital at every stage of the mining life cycle?
  3. The community factor: Mining means job creation and economic opportunities, but is that enough to win the support of local communities for new projects?
  4. The talent factor: Artificial intelligence holds the future to technology adoption in mining - is tomorrow's mining generation prepared at a tertiary education level for this, and what does their integration with the existing workforce look like?
  5. The market factor: Are downstream buyers ready to play their part, including buying critical minerals from “risky” jurisdictions?”
