| Abstract: | Over the last decade, Zambia - one of the continent's largest producers of copper - had fallen on hard times. Low world prices for the metal and declining output from the state owned mines wreaked havoc on the economy. Now, the mines have been privatized and massive amounts of capital have been injected into the sector. Things are beginning to look up - across the board. In this paper the author are answering the question - whether this will be the start of a new era of prosperity for Africa's copper giant. The author considers Zambia Consolidated Copper Mines, Mopani Copper Mines, Konkola Copper Mines. |
