They also detailed that the Mutoshi mine could start production in the fourth quarter of 2023. If completed, it will become the third largest cobalt mine in the world and will have an annual production capacity of 16,000 tons of cobalt hydroxide and 48,000 tons of copper cathodes.

According to Trafigura, Africa and the Democratic Republic of Congo, in particular, hold some of the largest mineral reserves needed for the global energy transition towards a zero emission world.
