Mining sector
Despite a long mining history, dating back more than a millennium, commercial and large scale mining is still in its early stages in Ethiopia. The mining industry is a sector with significant potential for the economy.
Ethiopia’s virtually untapped, diverse and vast mineral resources offer huge potential opportunities for exploration and development. These include tantalum, potash, gemstones, gold, iron ore and various industrial, energy and construction minerals, and many more.
This potential coupled with improving government policies and regulations means Ethiopia is fast becoming a destination of choice for international mining investors and developers.
