The President is further anticipated to hold bilateral meetings with regional Heads of State that will also be in attendance.<\/p>\n<p>The Investing in Africa Mining Indaba is the world\u2019s largest annual investment event for the mining sector and Africa\u2019s largest gathering for mining operators, investors, governments, and service companies. Participation at the event is part of a government campaign to revitalise the sector as it works to increase production, revenues and jobs through several avenues. These include the development of a more conducive, enabling policy environment; the identification of new opportunities; commodity diversification; deepening local involvement; and enhancing the capabilities of small-scale miners.<\/p>\n<p>The 2022 Mining Indaba theme is: \u201cEvolution of African Mining: Investing in the Energy Transition, Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) and Economies,\u201dwhere it is expected that discussions will centre around battery metals and their role in the energy transition.<\/p>\n<p>President Hichilema\u2019s participation in the Indaba presents a great opportunity for Zambia to market her rich mineral resource and investment potential to the international mining community. The Indaba will create a platform for high-level engagement, sharing of information on this strategic sector, and creation of synergies that will accrue benefits to the Zambian people.<\/p>\n<p>The President has always underscored the key role that the mining sector will continue to play in accelerating economic growth through harnessing available opportunities in the sector; increasing copper and other mineral production; maximizing benefits from various metals; further exploration and value addition as well as positioning the country to be a lead manufacturer of mineral value-added products.<\/p>\n<p>To this end, President Hichilema\u2019s participation in the Mining Indaba is projected to unlock opportunities for investment; reinforce bilateral relations with other countries within the region and further strengthen partnerships for greater cooperation in the country\u2019s quest for development for the benefit of the Zambian people.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zambia\">Zambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zambia.
