The Mining Indaba began on Monday with remarks from the South African and Zambian presidents, Prime Minister of the DRC and the South African Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy. Whilst they admitted a number of challenges facing the sector - including high commodity and energy prices and geopolitical challenges, it was great to hear success stories from leveraging on technology in defining the orebody and improving productivity. All the 3 Governments stressed on local beneficiation and social responsibility and reiterated their commitment to keep improving the mining investment climate. The highlight of the day was the #Tanzania Country showcase by the The Ministry of Minerals of Tanzania in collaboration with the Tanzania Chamber of Mines (TCM) that featured remarks by the Permanent Secretary of the The Ministry of Minerals of Tanzania - Kheri Mahimbali, an address by the Deputy Minister for Minerals - Dr Steven Kiruswa, followed by the Geological Survey of Tanzania among other speakers that highlighted the country’s massive mineral endowment and #investment opportunities in Tanzania. The session was also graced by a panel discussion by the existing investors - AngloGold Ashanti, Barrick Gold Corporation, Tembo Nickel, TRX Gold Corporation and Black Rock Mining Ltd, telling their story on factors that led their investment in Tanzania, such as the quality of the assets, political stability and Government’s commitment to the sector. #MI24

In South Africa, Platinum Group Metals (PGMs) are a precious resource, predominantly found within the vast rock layers known as the Bushveld Igneous Complex. With over 70% of the world's known platinum resources nestled in this geological marvel, the region has become a focal point for PGM mining. Numerous mining houses are strategically positioned along the PGM-rich layers, known as reefs, tapping into the immense potential of this lucrative industry. As MAB GROUP, while already entrenched in the chrome industry, we are actively considering expanding our footprint into the PGM sector. The allure of South Africa's PGM industry lies not only in its abundance but also in its strategic importance in various industrial applications, from catalytic converters to jewelry and beyond. With growing global demand for PGMs, there exists a compelling opportunity for MAB GROUP to capitalize on this thriving market. By leveraging our expertise, resources, and established presence within the mining sector, we aim to carve out a significant role in the South African PGM landscape. Our strategic approach involves meticulous planning, prudent investment, and fostering mutually beneficial partnerships to ensure sustainable growth and success. As we navigate the dynamic terrain of the PGM industry, we remain committed to upholding the highest standards of environmental stewardship, community engagement, and operational excellence. Our aspiration is not only to achieve commercial success but also to contribute positively to the socio-economic fabric of the regions in which we operate. In conclusion, the exploration of opportunities within South Africa's PGM industry represents a promising avenue for MAB GROUP's expansion and diversification efforts. With our determination, expertise, and commitment to responsible mining practices, we are poised to make a meaningful impact in this thriving sector. #MABGROUP #PGMIndustry #SouthAfricaMining #DiversificationOpportunities

Namibia’s global attractiveness drops, Chamber calls for urgent policy reforms The Chamber of Mines Namibia has called for urgent policy reforms in the country's mining sector following Namibia's drop in the 2023 The Fraser Institute Annual Survey of Mining Companies. The country's ranking on the Investment Attractiveness Index (IAI) fell by three points, prompting the Chamber of Mines to stress the critical need for improved mining policies and regulatory frameworks to enhance investor confidence and competitiveness globally. "While Namibia remains one of Africa's more favourable destinations, ranking 4th, it's troubling to see our score deteriorate by three points on the absolute scale and in our global rankings. This underscores the necessity for Namibia to improve its mining policies and regulatory landscape," President of the Chamber of Mines Zebra Kasete said. Namibia's position on the overall Investment Attractiveness Index (IAI) dropped by 3 points from 59 in 2022 to 56 in 2023, according to the 2023 Fraser Institute Survey of Mining Companies. Namibia ranked 42 out of 86 jurisdictions surveyed, down from 38 out of 62 jurisdictions in 2022. Despite this decline, Namibia maintains the third-highest ranking among African countries for its policy environment affecting exploration and investment.  https://lnkd.in/dwyDN9zH #namibia #mining #namibiamining #fraserinstitute #policyreforms Namibia Investment Promotion and Development Board (NIPDB) Veston Malango Tom Alweendo

🇦🇷 CAEM Urges Provinces to Adopt the RIGI for Enhanced Mining Investments 🚨 The Argentine Chamber of Mining Companies (CAEM) has issued a statement urging provinces to adopt the Incentive Regime for Large Investments (RIGI), which aims to bolster large investments in key strategic sectors to foster economic growth in the country: https://lnkd.in/dXMmWhKk What you must know: ➡️ In Argentina, each province must regulate the RIGI for it to be implemented. So far, only Río Negro has done so, although many others, including key mining provinces such as Salta, Catamarca, Jujuy, San Juan, and Mendoza, are expected to follow suit in the coming months. ➡️ Therefore, it's crucial to monitor provincial political and regulatory landscapes ⚠️ as, according to the National Constitution, provinces own the subsurface resources. Additionally, engaging with local communities is vital, as agreements with them are often necessary for investments. Poor management of these relationships can lead to operational and reputational risks ⛔️. ⛏️✅️ Copper Sector Revival: Pay attention to the copper sector, which has been virtually abandoned in Argentina but is set to see significant growth due to the RIGI. The map below highlights key copper mining sites slated to start operations in the next few years.. 💡 Understanding these dynamics is essential for anyone involved in the mining sector in Argentina. Our Latin America Programme at London Politica provides strategic intelligence and tailored analysis to help you navigate these complexities, ensuring informed decisions and risk mitigation. Feel free to reach out for more insights and to discuss potential collaboration opportunities! #Mining #Argentina #RIGI #PoliticalRisk #Investment

The Ministry of Minerals and the Government of Tanzania deserve high praise for their visionary project aimed at conducting an in-depth geophysical survey across two expansive blocks, covering a total area of 165,574 square kilometers. With only 16% of Tanzania surveyed so far, the potential for significant mineral discoveries is immense, paving the way for substantial economic growth and opportunities. Hon. Anthony Mavunde (MP and Minister for Minerals) and Kheri Mahimbali (Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Minerals) have spearheaded this commendable effort, which will undoubtedly lead to the establishment of numerous large-scale mines and a surge in opportunities for local communities and businesses. Transec is excited about the prospects this project holds for the mining industry in Tanzania. As a company dedicated to providing top-tier equipment and services to the mining sector, we look forward to supporting these future developments with our expertise and resources. We remain committed to partnering with local stakeholders and the government to ensure that these initiatives not only boost economic growth but also contribute to sustainable development and community empowerment. Let’s embrace the future of Tanzania’s mining industry together, driving progress and prosperity for all. #InvestInTanzania #Mining #EconomicGrowth #SustainableDevelopment #TransecTanzania #MineralExploration #Africa #EastAfrica #Tanzania #MiningIndustry #Partnership #Leadership For more details on this exciting project, check out the original article here. https://lnkd.in/d6W-b2ig
