[Ferro-Alloys.com] AFRICA CHROMIUM WEEK 2026
Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe
14-16 April 2026
An overview of the world’s second largest holder of chrome reserves and the international chrome markets!
Home to the second largest chrome ore reserves in the world, Zimbabwe is a key player in the global chromium market.
To address current challenges, Zimbabwe has adopted a distinct strategy from its South African neighbour.
This strategy involves a chrome ore export ban, a push for local beneficiation, and support for the development of energy supply. To achieve these goals, the country is encouraging ferrochrome producers to build their own power plants while providing discounted electricity tariffs in the meantime and over a two-year period only.Additionally, Zimbabwe aims to commission additional energy infrastructures.
Zimbabwe has historically cultivated strong ties with China and is currently part of the Belt and Road Initiative. This close cooperation, based on mutual benefits, reflects in the local chrome sector, with most assets being Chinese-owned.
The panel discussions will address the following key questions:
– What are the prospects for Zimbabwe becoming a new leading ferrochrome production hub in Southern Africa?
– What is the outlook for open-pit chrome mining at the Zimbabwe Great Dyke?
– How will the country manage its Just Transition goals whilst ensuring a stable and cost effective energy supply for the development of the local ferroalloys sector?
– Will Zimbabwe ferroalloys producers be able to commission sufficient new power generation to cover their growing electricity needs?
– How will the partnership with China influence the Zimbabwe ferrochrome industry as well as trade flows?
– What are the global and regional prospects for our industry and end-uses markets considering the global economic, regulatory and geopolitical situation?
This event is an unmissable opportunity for those with an interest in chrome markets across the value chain, as well as in critical and strategic raw materials. The event will comprise panel discussions featuring prominent experts, industry CEOs, and leading analysts. It will also include regional outlooks.
