Hear what the industry has to say about Critical Minerals Africa
-
This conference has been an eye-opener for me and my country. We have critical minerals in Malawi, but we have learnt that we cannot [develop the sector] alone. By collaborating with other countries, we will be able to benefit more from our resources.
-
The conference is inspiring and showcases the level of cooperation that African countries want to achieve, especially around the financing of mining projects to supply the global energy transition.
-
The conference is very informative. All the participants from across the continent are looking for partnerships. There are a lot of existing associations, such as the African Diamond Producers Association, which the critical minerals sector can learn from.
