TOP AFRICAN JURISDICTIONS

Africa boasts vast resources of copper. In fact, Africa is believed to have some of the world’s largest yet undiscovered mineral reserves. (UNEP.org). However, many projects are located in jurisdictions where political challenges and corruption are an impediment to efficiency. While options for copper supply abound in places like the Democratic Republic of Congo, political corruption has caused uncertainty about project ownership and continues to stunt further development of that country’s potential. Similarly, in Zambia, threats of implementing super taxes have slowed development over the past decade.

Uncertainty and delays are bad for business. The corollary is that high-quality projects in countries that are friendly to mining and ready for business are likely to command a premium. That is why Trigon Metals is committed to working in jurisdictions with stable governments, mining-friendly legislation and skilled labour.

NAMIBIA

Namibia is a country in southern Africa bordering the Atlantic Ocean to the west, Zambia and Angola to the north, Botswana to the east and South Africa to the south. The country plays a key role in the mining sector. Benefiting from a stable economy, fair laws and mining-supportive history, the country attracts significant international investment to the African continent.

Mining is the keystone of Namibia’s economy, generating approximately 25 percent of the country’s revenue with its large available workforce of mining professionals, and great road, rail and power infrastructure.

MOROCCO

Morocco is a leading mining jurisdiction in North Africa, known for its rich geological potential and long-standing mining tradition. The country offers a supportive regulatory environment, modern infrastructure, and growing investor interest, particularly in base and precious metals. With active production and exploration across copper, silver, lead, and zinc, Morocco is emerging as a key destination for mining investment on the African continent.
