On-demand: Lobito Corridor: A gamechanger for the African mining sector

Spanning 1,300 km across three countries, the Lobito Corridor railway project will revolutionise mining logistics in the Central and Southern African regions. The corridor is designed to efficiently transport critical minerals from the Copperbelt region of the DRC and Zambia to the port of Lobito in Angola for export to global markets.

It’s intended to boost regional trade, reduce transportation costs for mining companies, and potentially make currently uneconomical ore grades viable to mine. It will unlock the economic potential of Africa’s mineral wealth while fostering regional development and international partnerships.

Listen to the on-demand webinar, brought to you by Mining Review Africa and the Angolan International Mining Conference, as a panel of experts unpack the key role that the Lobito Corridor will play in the African mining sector, particularly in the global supply of critical metals.

Topics include:

• • Angola’s role in the development of the Lobito Corridor

• • Impact on mining operations in the region

• • Enhancing regional integration and intergovernmental cooperation

• • Economic impact on the region

• • Overcoming ESG challenges facing the project

• • Benefits for the region that go beyond mining
