Scramble for critical minerals spurs an ******** rail revival

Southern *******’s railways are suddenly getting global attention and attracting billions of dollars in investment, with a race to secure copper supplies needed for the energy transition at its centre.

From Angola on the continent’s west coast to Tanzanian on the east, governments and investors are readying to revive decades-old rail lines that have fallen into disrepair and build new ones. Much of the new demand for freight comes from the central ******** copperbelt that Zambia and Democratic Republic of Congo share.
