The KFM copper-cobalt mine is one of the world's largest and highest-grade undeveloped copper-cobalt projects. Located in the Central African copper-cobalt belt in the DRC, KFM enjoys synergy with TFM copper-cobalt mine, one of the existing assets of CMOC, in development and operations with a distance of 33 km between the two sites.
It is estimated that the Copperbelt contains 5 billion tonnes of ore containing 3.3% copper, yielding 185 million tonnes of copper. Industrial-scale mining on the Copperbelt has taken place for over a century. Cobalt is produced as a by-product of this copper mining. However, the increasing demand for energy storage and electric …
DRC is the world's third largest copper producer, accounting for 10.4% of 22 million metric tons of global mined copper supply last year, according to the International Copper Study Group.
Despite setbacks, the mining industry has not given up hopes of establishing a new era of mining in the state to extract nickel, copper, cobalt and perhaps other metals, incentivized by the ...

Thirty years ago, nobody really cared about cobalt–it was a silvery, metallic byproduct of copper and nickel mining. But now? Cobalt became a superstar, desired …
We extract and process cobalt in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Australia, Canada, and Norway, mainly as a by-product of copper mining, but also as a by-product of nickel mining. As a recycler of cobalt-containing materials, we are closing the loop of the circular value chain. With our activities, we help meet the growing demand for this ...

Electric vehicle batteries contain copper, nickel, cobalt and lithium; of these, cobalt and nickel are usually recoverable for new batteries, but lithium and copper are captured for use in other ...
Most cobalt is produced as a byproduct of copper and nickel mining; in 2020, 60.7% of global production was from primary copper mines and 29.3% was from nickel mines. Most major cobalt-bearing deposits are in the Central African Copper Belt, with Democratic Republic of Congo contributing 68.6% of global cobalt supply.
Given that cobalt-based batteries are a crucial and inevitable part of the green energy transition, both large-scale industrial mining and artisanal mining are here to stay. A World Economic Forum (WEF) white paper in 2020 outlined the current state of artisanal cobalt mining in the DRC and offered recommendations to make the industry …
Due to its low concentration in ores, cobalt is usually considered to be a companion metal which is of limited economic interest. The bulk of global cobalt production emanates as a by-product of extraction of commodities such as copper (~55%), nickel (~35%), and arsenic (Azevedo et al., 2018, Smith, 2001).The only exceptions, which …
