Dr. Nobuhle Nkabane emphasized the importance of beneficiation, boosting exploration, and involving women and youth in the extraction and exploitation of natural resources to revolutionize the African mining industry at the thirtieth session of the Investing in African Mining Indaba. Africa has substantial reserves of various minerals and petroleum resources, making it a leader in ecofriendly industries. However, underdevelopment persists due to the “pittoport” methodology, and the solution is to process resources locally to secure benefits for Africa.
