Inside Ivanhoe Mine's perceived
Worlds' second largest Copper mine
in DRC - The Kakula Project.
n the thicket of the green surrounding
Iforest, a vast resource lies in state
dripping some greenish
mineralization awaiting tapping. Within
it, a rich portfolio of elements exists
which have made some of the biggest
miners in the world divest their bases in
order to secure future markets as weights
shift in demand for global metals. In the
distant, further up north of the country
human nature rages as some seek
dominion over others, a brutal conflict
that have left the country torn apart in
some sections.
In contrast, in this massive coalescence
of greenish-metallic existence concealed
by the darkness, peace reigns and the
only form of violence is that of
equipment metal to the modification of
the rock for the purpose of extraction of
the precious ore. This is constantly
moved by mining equipment and
transported to the surface for stockpiling
and later processing. Welcome to the
Kamoa-Kakula Copper Project located in
the South Central region of DRC, about
25km west of Kolwezi.
