Zimbabwe Set to Construct US$13bn Mapinga Mines to Energy Industrial Park in June

In a significant move to harness the benefits of the green revolution, the Zimbabwean government has announced that construction for Phase 1 of the Mapinga Mines to Energy Industrial Park will commence in June.

This initiative aims to enhance the beneficiation and value addition of the country’s mineral resources, particularly lithium.

This ambitious project will feature a comprehensive infrastructure including:
 
A coking plant with an annual capacity of 1.2 million metric tonnes of coke and 130,000 metric tonnes of lithium salt.
Two 300-megawatt power stations.
A graphite processing plant.
A nickel-chromium alloy smelter.
A nickel sulfate plant.
 
The industrial park, which will span over 500 hectares, is set to be implemented in phases, with Phase 1 beginning in June 2024. The government will hold a shareholding in this venture.
