Strategic Sector 06

Mining, Critical Minerals & Beneficiation

Africa holds minerals essential to the global energy and technology transition. Digital systems, processing capacity, traceability and local beneficiation determine how much of that value is retained on the continent, and whether mineral wealth finances the infrastructure of Africa's own digital economy.

ADIIF's Approach

Sovereign technologies applied to the sector.

ADIIF approaches each sector through its three execution platforms: ADIIF Forum convenes the sector's public, capital and technology leadership; ADIIF Venture develops strategic programmes, partnerships and implementation pathways; ADIIF R&D provides research, technology evaluation and intelligence.

Sector programmes, partnerships and projects are described only once established. No sector project, partner or commitment is implied on this page.
