THE NATURE OF MINING
KEY POINTS TO NOTE:
A. INVESTMENT:
1. Mine development takes many years to achieve; an average of
about 10 years from Exploration to start of Mine Production.
2. Huge upfront investment is required to undertake mining. It
takes about 5 to 15 years to recoup the investment into the
operations, depending on the metal being mined and scale of
operations.
3. Mining is for the strong hearted, high risk takers with high
levels of perseverance and not for faint hearted.
4. It requires long term investment mind-set. The investment runs
from hundreds of USD millions to billions.
B. CURRENT STATUS OF ZAMBIAN MINING INDUSTRY:
Copperbelt Mines – Old, Mature and Mainly Underground & labour Intensive,
structural factors and legacy issues rendering them high cost
New Mines – e.g Northwestern Province – New frontier, mainly open pits which
are highly mechanised.

INCREASES IN MINERAL ROYALTY AND CORPORATE INCOME TAX
PAYMENTS BY MINING COMPANIES
• Mineral Royalty contributions have increased due to upward adjustments of
the royalty rate as well as increased production volumes from mining
companies owing to increased investment into exploration and expansion
projects under previous fiscal regimes.
• Over 5 mining companies have been consistently contributing to Corporate
Tax.
• Profitability in the mining sector as a whole has been impacted mainly by
different cost profiles resulting from structural factors and legacy issues in
different operations. Zambia’s mining industry is not homogenous.
• Payments to local councils have increased as a result of mining projects
commencing in new districts in addition to the expansion of projects in old
mining towns.
