The African Development Bank's recent studies on battery minerals value chains will also be disseminated.

The African Development Bank's engagement at the Mining Indaba will focus on building climate resilience and just energy transition in the mining sector, promote the Bank's initiative to develop the African Green Minerals Strategy and assist African countries to attract new mining investments in the energy transition. The Bank delegation will also attend the pre-conference ministerial symposium, scheduled for Sunday 8 May 2022.
