About the Mining Indaba Virtual event

Investing in African Mining Indaba is solely dedicated to the successful capitalisation and development of mining interests in Africa. Also known as Mining Indaba. Succeeding for over 27 years, Mining Indaba has a unique and widening perspective of the African mining industry, bringing together visionaries and innovators from across the spectrum. Due to the current pandemic, it was decided to cancel the live event and replace it with Mining Indaba Virtual.
