Lobito Corridor Poised To Revolutionise African Mining Logistics

A new era in African mining logistics is emerging with the 1,300 km Lobito Corridor railway , spanning Angola, Zambia , and the DRC . This corridor will transport critical minerals from the Copperbelt to global markets via the port of Lobito, unlocking significant economic opportunities for the region.

More than just a railway, the Lobito Corridor is a strategic enabler of regional trade, cost-efficient mining operations , and sustainable development . By reducing transportation costs and improving access to export routes, the project could make previously uneconomical ore grades viable, catalyzing new investment and growth in the mining sector.
