The Future of Mining Communication in Africa

Why Is Reliable Mobile Signal Now the Lifeline of Every Mine in Africa?

No mine can afford poor mobile signals underground. When communication stops, operations slow, safety risks rise, and productivity drops. Across Africa — from Botswana and Zambia to Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Namibia, and Angola — mobile coverage remains one of the biggest barriers to efficient mining. Weak signal in shafts, tunnels, control rooms, and even site offices can cause major losses in time, coordination, and money. Reliable communication is no longer a luxury; it is a necessity for every successful mining operation.

DRC Mining Cadastre Chief Calls for Revitalization of Maniema's Mining Sector

The Director General of the Congolese Mining Cadastre (CAMI), Mr. Popol Mabolia Yenga, has urged renewed efforts to unlock the vast but underexploited mining potential of Maniema Province.
Speaking at the 2nd Conference on Mines, Energy and Infrastructures held in Kindu from November 3 to 5, 2025, Mr. Mabolia called for coordinated strategies to strengthen geological research, develop local mining enterprises, and revive key industrial projects.

How sensor-based sorting is extending the life of critical mineral deposits

As ore grades decline, global demand for critical minerals rises, and ESG expectations intensify, mining economics are being reshaped. TOMRA Mining's sensor-based sorting technologies are redefining how minerals are recovered, transforming once-discarded material into a valuable resource, extending mine life, and strengthening supply security for the energy transition

Sound exploration – the bedrock of every mining project

Whether the purpose is to assess the value of an acquisition target or to decide on advancing a project to its next stage, a due diligence study on the exploration work conducted is a vital risk mitigation measure.
