Africa’s mining outlook stands at a crossroads. On one hand, the continent is witnessing a monumental surge in opportunity and demand for its abundant minerals and metals. On the other, however, global insecurity and oscillating commodity prices are steering investments away from perceived "riskier" choices, with #Africa potentially missing the opportunity to capitalise on its mineral endowments. Ahead of Invest Africa's Mining Series in Cape Town from the 5 - 7 February, we explore 5 key trends shaping Africa’s mining industry in 2024.

As the mining industry gathers in #CapeTown for #MiningIndaba, my colleagues Thomas Vogt, Duncan Melville, CFA, Elton Parker, Brian O'Malley and Peter Clearkin have published a great paper around unlocking growth for mining players. Key messages: 1) Miners have an unparalleled opportunity to supercharge their growth—but to capitalize on this potential, they must invest in new practices and ways of thinking. 2) Demand for green minerals is expected to create hundreds of billions in new value during the next several years, with some estimates projecting that green-metal purchases could reach $10 trillion by 2050. 3) But years of underinvestment leave most miners with expensive choices to make. To reap the benefits of the clean-energy market, most will need to expand production output by several times today’s levels. 4) The right investments can be transformative and help miners secure lucrative, long-term growth, though determining what those bets are will require a different type of planning than most miners are accustomed to. 5) The future is bright, but to avail themselves of it, mining organizations need to fundamentally change how they approach strategic planning.

Unlocking unprecedented growth in the mining industry! Green minerals' demand could create a $10 trillion market by 2050. To seize this opportunity, miners must embrace new practices and thinking. Years of underinvestment demand strategic choices. Expanding production is the key to reaping benefits in the clean-energy market.

How can the mining industry meet the rising demand for critical minerals? Carly Leonida's article for The Intelligent Miner focuses on the urgent need to rethink our approach to sourcing essential resources. As traditional methods struggle to keep pace with increasing demand, alternative solutions like Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) are gaining traction. Kevin Kammerzell, Vice President of Mining, Minerals and Metals at Stantec, highlights, "The world needs to expand its idea of what constitutes a 'resource', and it needs to do so quickly." Mining companies must adapt by leveraging innovative technologies and exploring non-traditional resources to bridge the supply-demand gap. This includes mining industrial waste and reprocessing tailings, as seen with Rio Tinto's tellurium production from copper waste. The industry's transformation will require substantial investment and a commitment to sustainability to ensure long-term success.
