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.

An overview of Zambia’s mining sector

  • 1. AN OVERVIEW OF ZAMBIA’S MINING SECTOR ZAMBIA – FINLAND BUSINESS FORUM MONDAY 1ST JUNE 2015 SOLWEZI “Giving back to Zambia” 1 Mr. SHULA JALASI SHULA – Economist, Zambia Chamber of Mines/Zambia EITI Council
  • 3. 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.

  • 20. 20 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.

Editor's Notes

  1. Zambia conforms closely to the inverted pyramid pattern of contributions seen in other MPD case study countries. At the top of the pyramid we see that FDI in Mining has completely dominated that for all other sectors in the past decade. Mining accounted for 86 % of all FDI inflows in 2011. For comparison, agriculture accounts for less than 3% of FDI inflows. Looking down the pyramid, mining’s export contribution in Zambia is exceptionally high by international standards (UNCTAD data). Its contribution to government revenue has recently (post 2008) averaged over 25% of government revenue, which is also high by international standards (ZRA and IMF data, discussed later). The GDP and employment contributions are similar to what is seen in other countries where the Toolkit has been applied (CSO data).
  2. Based on the sample data aggregated from four mines*, direct mining employment has increased, but part of the increase, particularly for contractors, is due to capital investment taking place – if there is no new investment this part of direct employment will fall. Indirect employment – mainly in the supply chain – has some scope for increase by raising the share of mine inputs provided by Zambian manufacturers, rather than Zambian importers of foreign produced goods. Induced employment, which results from employees spending their wages is the most important driver of job creation from mining, both in terms of numbers of jobs, and in making the greatest contribution to poverty reduction. The scale of induced employment is probably under estimated here, since reliable data on the informal sector are hard to obtain. *OPM has analysed and aggregated current and forward looking data from four mining operations: Mopani Copper Mines (Glencore), Konkola Copper Mines (Vedanta Resources), Lumwana Mine (Barrick) and Kansanshi Mine (FQML).
