lithium

Zimbabwe has unveiled Zimbabwe Mining Week as part of a strategic shift from price-taker to price-setter in lithium, gold, platinum, and chrome markets, leveraging the Victoria Falls Exchange to establish local pricing benchmarks.

Zimbabwe will commission Africa's first lithium sulphate processing plant within a month, while state-owned Mutapa Gold Resources plans US$150 million investment to more than double production to 250,000 ounces annually.
