Zambia’s yearly copper production will grow more than 40% to 1 million tons in 2027, the country’s Finance Ministry has reported. Zambia’s copper output hit a 14-year low of 698 566 t in 2023 as its mining sector faced tax changes and clashes with the previous government. Africa’s second-largest copper producer is seeking to take advantage of strong demand underpinned by the global energy transition. Photograph: Bloomberg
