Chinese firms to build $2 billion Tanzanian rail to nickel mine
The new railway will link the port of Dar es Salaam to a nickel mine in neighboring Burundi.
Indonesia’s state miner PT Aneka Tambang Tbk and Chinese precursor manufacturer CNGR Advanced Material Co. Ltd. signed a framework agreement to build a nickel industrial park in Indonesia, the companies said on Wednesday.
CNGR will invest in a facility to produce nickel matte with installed capacity of 80,000 tonnes in a park managed by Antam’s unit PT Kawasan Industri Antam Timur, which is expected to start operations in 2025.
