AFMIC 2021 - Set To Be Africa’s Largest Virtual Mining Convention

The African continent is richly endowed with mineral resources that have the potential to contribute significantly towards the heavy economic development of the continent. Several African nations are enriched with enormous quantities of untapped mineral wealth and the region’s mining sector is consistently growing to offer an attractive environment for both local and international mining investors. The continent has about 30% of the world’s total mineral reserves including industrial diamonds, platinum, manganese, gold, bauxite, and cobalt among others. Precious metals are scattered throughout Africa, from Ethiopia in the east to Senegal in the west, and South Africa in the South. Diamonds are found throughout the continent and copper is all over the place in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Tanzania, South Africa and Namibia. Each African country is rich in resources of one kind or another, and recent exploration and mining initiatives by many African countries in collaboration with multinational conglomerates are resulting in a boom in the continent's affluent mining sector.

Dedicated to connecting global mining investors with the key stakeholders in the African mining sector, the Africa Mining Convention - AFMIC 2021 is a much-anticipated virtual event on the mining industry calendar where the industry leaders are set to share best practices and innovations in the mining sector and network with mining industry peers from across the globe. AFMIC is an apt platform for showcasing innovation in the mining sector with a particular focus on the mining technology requirements and local capability optimization to drive the African mining market forward. Attending the Africa mining conference will ensure that you are contemporary with the most significant technologies and can connect with a global network of more than 1000+ attendees from across Africa and the globe. AFMIC is one of Africa’s leading virtual mining expo and conference that has already generated huge support from a number of local ministries and international mining companies including the Ministry of Mines and Steel Development, Nigeria which has signed up as a supporting partner for the upcoming mining conference.

Following the uncertainty around travel, large-scale events, and evolving global changes due to COVID-19, AFMIC will be held virtually from 13th - 15th July 2021.

The three-day virtual trade show offers an online exhibit hall featuring customized booths with downloadable content, company brochures, videos and much more. Attendees will book meetings with exhibition representatives via video or text chat. The exclusive International virtual mining summit provides an interactive platform for attendees to have collaborative experiences with dedicated virtual networking lounges and qualified 1-2-1 business meetings to boost engagement.

The Africa mining convention is deemed to be the mining event of the year as the event will bring together companies, visionaries and innovators from across the globe to present exclusive insights on the African and global mining industry, network with peers and showcase their latest offerings to a huge qualified audience.
