Morocco has it all to be Africa’s premier sustainable mining investment destination including a diverse mineral offering, producing mineral substances including phosphates, lead, zinc, copper, gold, silver, cobalt, manganese, fluorine, and barite.
Three quarters of the planet’s known phosphate reserves emanate from Morocco, and it is the world’s top exporter of crude phosphates. Morocco was Africa’s most attractive mining investment destination in 2021 and 8th worldwide due to its mineral potential and new mining legislation. The country has an ambitious plan: to double 2020 revenue from non-phosphate mining to greater than $1.7 billion by 2030, this is coupled with a green strategy for responsible & sustainable mining in agreement with the European Union
Morocco has the potential to be the centre of the global battery minerals production and processing revolution. Battery industry giants have announced three major electric vehicle battery plants in Morocco, The Kingdom is the world’s ninth largest producer of cobalt with a production of 2,000tn a year, The country aims to exploit its cobalt reserves as part of the supply chain for rechargeable batteries
