“We are seeing mega projects such as liquid natural gas (LNG) extraction take off, with increased mining activities and cargo flows through the Beira and Nacala corridors.

"Investment by international companies and some exploration initiatives in the battery minerals sector demonstrate the country’s business case and will contribute towards confidence in our industry in the region.”
