STRATEGIC MINERALS
Kenya's Mining and Blue Economy CS Hassan Joho highlighted the importance of international investments in the mining sector for job creation and wealth building in local communities during the US-Kenya Critical Supply Chains Conference. He urged investors to explore Kenya's strategic mineral resources, such as rare earths and lithium, as the government aims to boost mining's GDP contribution from 1% to 10% by 2030 through favorable policies. With competitive incentives in place, countries like the US, Australia, and China are showing interest in investing in Kenya’s mining sector.
