Africa is entering a new era of mineral demand as global industries accelerate their shift to clean energy, boosting the strategic importance of copper, cobalt, lithium and other critical resources mined across the continent. But even as countries launch national strategies and the African Union pushes for value-chain development, the region’s logistics backbone remains under immense strain. From long, unpredictable road routes to limited rail capacity, high transport costs and congested ports, the ability to move minerals efficiently is increasingly defining the success or failure of mining operations. #OpenMineral #IvanhoeMines #Africa #Logistics #mining #Africasminingresurgence #miningoperations
