  • Mining & Mineral Beneficiation
    ZAMBIA DEVELOPMENT AGENCY Sub-Sector Profile: Mineral Beneficiation Industrial Minerals ZAMBIA: “Africa’s New Frontier for Investments and Profits” June 2013 I. OVERVIEW Located at the centre of southern central Africa, Zambia is a politically stable country with a growing economy; it is in the midst of transforming itself into an economic hub for the rapidly growing central and southern African regions. In Zambia, the sector is the backbone of its economy, contributing 9-10% of GDP. From 2001 to 2009, the mining sector annually grew by 9% and is forecasted to grow from US 590 million in 2000 to US $ 17 billion by the year 2017. Zambia possesses one of the world’s most vital and complex metallotects and is internationally recognized as having a good mineral potential. Copper is the main mineral resource, accounting for roughly 75% of the country’s total export earnings. In Zambia, refined copper is its major export product. The export value of refined copper and copper alloys (unwrought) alone accounts for 63.5 % of its entire trade value. The Zambian Government has been encouraging domestic value-addition of mineral resources by providing generous incentives. Through these efforts, Zambia has established itself as the top producer and exporter of refined copper in Africa. In addition to copper, there is also a broad spectrum of mineral resources available for further exploration, mining and beneficiation. Additional investment opportunities are especially present in mining and beneficiation of metallic minerals, such as iron, manganese, and uranium, and fuel minerals such as coal. Driven by increased consumption in emerging Asian economies, demands for Zambia’s mineral resources are expected to grow further.

  • The Mineral Industry of Zambia in 2016
    2016 Minerals Yearbook ZAMBIA [ADVANCE RELEASE] U.S. Department of the Interior February 2020 U.S. Geological Survey The Mineral Industry of Zambia By James J. Barry Zambia’s mining sector continued to be dominated by cobalt by 58%; beryl, 53%; emerald, 36%; and cement, 29%. Notable and copper production. In 2016, the country accounted for decreases in production included that of cobalt (Co content of 2.7% and 3.8% of world mined cobalt and copper production, mine production), which decreased by 65%; coal, 45%; refined respectively. Zambia was a leading gemstone producer globally, copper metal, 26%; raw steel, 21%; and manganese (Mn content), particularly of emerald. The country also produced cement, coal, 11%. Additionally, no bismuth was produced in 2016 because the crude steel, semiprecious gemstones, gold, lime, manganese, mineralogy of the copper ore sent to the smelter was different than refined petroleum products, sand and gravel, silver, stone, and that of previous years. Increased production of refined cobalt and sulfur (Flanagan, 2018; Shedd, 2018). copper metal was a result of increased imports of concentrates for processing (table 1; China Nonferrous Metal Mining (Group) Minerals in the National Economy Corporation Ltd., 2017, p. 30). In 2016, Zambia’s real gross domestic product (GDP) was Structure of the Mineral Industry $12.6 billion,1 which was an increase of 3.4% compared with that of 2015. The value of the mining and quarrying sector Many of the country’s large copper mining and processing accounted for 10.5% of real GDP; the sector increased by 7% operations were located in Copperbelt Province in north- compared with an increase of 0.3% in 2015 owing to increases central Zambia.

  • Introduction
    1 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 INTRODUCTION The Neoproterozoic Zambian Copperbelt (ZCB) and the contiguous Congolese Copperbelt (CCB) form one of the world’s most significantly endowed sediment-hosted metal provinces, the Central African Copperbelt (Fig. 1.1). Hitzman et al. (2005) estimated a global resource of in excess of 120 million metric tons of copper and 10 million metric tons of cobalt. The deposits of the ZCB have been subject to large-scale mining of copper and cobalt for the past 70 years, however evidence of exploitation by indigenous cultures dates back to the Iron Age. To date, in excess of one billion tonnes of ore at ~2.7% Cu has been extracted (McGregor, 1991). This study deals specifically with the Nkana-Mindola Cu-Co deposit (NKM). The deposit is situated in the south-western part of the ZCB (Figs 1.1b and 1.2) and has an estimated global resource of in excess of ~670 mT @ 2.2% Cu and 0.1% Co (McGregor, 1991), making it one of the larger Cu deposits in the ZCB (Digitial Appendix 1). It has a strike length of ~16 km and consists of one main stratabound orebody, which is confined to a common stratigraphic interval. The ores are deformed and occupy the nose and eastern limb of a major northwest-plunging synform, known as the Nkana Syncline (Fig. 1.2). Contiguous, yet uneconomic Cu mineralisation (< 1% Cu) occurs on the south-western limb of the Nkana Syncline. The intensity of deformation affecting the rocks of the NKM increases progressively from the limbs of the Nkana Syncline towards its core.
