Governance Expert, Wesley Miyanda, says the recently held Mining and Investment Insaka in Lusaka will shape the future of Zambia’s mining industry.
Mr. Miyanda has emphasized that Zambia continues to rely on the mining sector for it’s logical economic growth.
He also expressed optimism that the country will achieve the 3 million metric tonnes copper production target per annum by 2031, now that key strategic mining assets such as Konkola Copper Mine (KCM) and Mopani Mines have started operating optimally.
“The mining sector has continued to be the cornerstone of the country’s economy and it creates jobs for the people,” said Mr. Miyanda in a statement issued to RCV News in Lusaka today.
Mr. Miyanda has therefore urged investors at KCM and Mopani to fulfil their obligations to the Zambian people ,by honouring their contract agreements.
