South Africa is revising domiciliation thresholds.

The New Equation: Risk + Data = Growth in Africa’s Energy Transition

Africa holds 30% of global mineral reserves critical to the energy transition-including over 70% of global cobalt production from the Democratic Republic of Congo, substantial lithium deposits across Zimbabwe, DRC, and Mali, and significant graphite reserves in Mozambique.
