Africa Mining Projects in Progress 2025
Mining underpins the global energy transition, with electrification driving rapid growth in demand for battery and critical minerals. Africa, which holds a significant share of the world’s cobalt, manganese, copper and bauxite, is becoming increasingly central to global supply chains.
Yet most minerals are still exported in raw form, limiting value capture.
Creamer Media’s 'Africa Mining Projects in Progress 2025' report reflects this challenge through a selection of projects at the preliminary economic assessment, scoping, prefeasibility and feasibility stages, highlighting the scale of opportunity and the structural, financing and policy hurdles that will shape whether Africa’s mineral endowment translates into sustained industrial development.
