Africa’s gold sector is entering a new phase. Record prices have strengthened investor appetite for African deposits, but they have also hardened governments’ determination to retain more value at home.

Gold is no longer treated simply as a taxable export commodity. Across key jurisdictions, it is an increasingly strategic asset: a source of fiscal revenue, foreign exchange, domestic industrialisation, central-bank reserves and political legitimacy.

Today, on Youth Day in South Africa, we honour the courage, resilience, and legacy of the young people who helped shape our nation's history.

Commemorating the 1976 Soweto Uprising, Youth Day serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made in the pursuit of equality, dignity, and access to education.

It is also a powerful reminder of the role young people continue to play in driving progress, challenging convention, and building a better future.

As we reflect on this legacy, we are reminded of the importance of creating opportunities for young people through education, skills development, innovation, and inclusive growth.

Today, we celebrate the energy, ambition, and potential of South Africa's youth.

A combination of influential leaders from across the mining value chain, will play a pivotal role in shaping an event, and programme, designed to translate partnerships into practical outcomes for Africa’s mining sector.

This dynamic group, grounded in deep expertise and real-world experience, will help ensure we highlight how collaboration is unlocking value, driving innovation, and advancing sustainable growth across Africa’s mining sector.

Africa’s mining future will not be defined by mineral potential alone. It will be defined by how effectively we work together to unlock it.

Mining Indaba 2027 asks the next question: what comes after alignment?

Anchored in Stronger Together: Partnerships in Practice, MI27 shifts the focus from commitment to ex*****on and explores how stronger partnerships can accelerate investment, strengthen value chains and deliver long-term impact across the continent.

In this video, Dr. Marit Kitaw shares why collaboration will be one of Africa’s greatest competitive advantages in shaping the future of mining.

“Africa has the minerals, the vision and the strategic frameworks to lead the future of global mining.” — Dr. Marit Kitaw, Economic Affairs Officer, United Nations Economic Commission for Africa

Introducing the Mining Indaba 2027 Influencers! ✨

Youth are no longer observers in mining’s transformation. They are active participants shaping outcomes across technology, ESG delivery, skills development and operational innovation.

The MI27 Influencers programme is designed to bring emerging talent into the centre of the industry conversation, ensuring youth perspectives are not secondary, but part of how the sector evolves and makes decisions.

Anchored in Stronger Together: Partnerships in Practice, this reflects a clear shift in the industry. Mining performance is now driven by connected ecosystems across government, industry, academia and innovation networks.

This group brings grounded, real-world perspectives into the MI27 narrative, reflecting what transformation looks like in practice, not just in principle.

South Africa has set an ambitious target to fully roll out its long-awaited mining cadastre system by March 2027 – a reform widely viewed as critical to restoring investor confidence and unlocking new exploration investment.

The digital mineral rights registry will provide greater transparency, improve licensing efficiency and modernise the administration of mining and prospecting rights across all nine provinces.

For years, industry stakeholders have identified a modern cadastre as one of the most important reforms needed to improve regulatory certainty and attract investment. As competition for mining capital intensifies across Africa, efficient permitting systems are becoming a key differentiator for mining jurisdictions.

While significant challenges remain, including the migration of decades of historical mineral rights data, the next ten months could prove pivotal for South Africa's mining sector and its ability to compete in the global race for critical minerals.

“The system is working. We are now looking at moving to the Free State, KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape. We recognise that we need to move with speed.” - Jacob Mbele, Director-General of the Department of Mineral and Petroleum Resources

“The longer it takes, the less confident we become in terms of what the final product will look like.” - Minerals Council South Africa CEO Mzila Mthenjane

Africa's mining future will not be defined by mineral endowment alone. It will be defined by the strength of the partnerships that turn resources into growth, infrastructure, jobs and shared prosperity.

Southern Africa is rich in critical minerals, yet many jurisdictions continue to face familiar challenges around logistics, energy security, policy certainty and investment competitiveness.

In this exclusive Q&A, Vusi Mabena, Executive Secretary of the Mining Industry Association of Southern Africa (MIASA), argues that the next chapter of mining growth will depend on practical collaboration between governments, industry, financiers and communities.

From the Lobito Corridor and regional infrastructure investment to regulatory alignment, beneficiation and social licence, he shares a compelling perspective on what "Partnerships in Practice" should look like across the SADC region.

As Mining Indaba 2027 convenes the industry under the theme Stronger Together: Partnerships in Practice, one question remains:
Can Southern Africa build the trust, policy certainty and regional cooperation needed to unlock its full mineral potential?
