The Ministry of Mines in Ethiopia was established by decree in 1958, marking a significant step in a nation with a rich history in mineral exploration that dates back over 3,500 years. Despite its ancient roots, Ethiopia has recently emerged as a prominent mining destination, attracting global companies eager to invest in a high-potential mining jurisdiction. The country’s diverse mineral wealth offers substantial economic opportunities, making it a key player in the global mining industry.
Ethiopia is endowed with vast reserves of valuable minerals, including oil, natural gas, gold, platinum, lithium, tantalum, potash, copper, and iron, among others. These resources not only hold immense potential for driving economic growth but also provide considerable opportunities for foreign direct investment.
