This is the nation's fourth successful election since the turn of the century, which is a positive sign of the ongoing development of the Democratic Republic of the Congo's democratic process. The election reinforces our belief that the country is on the cusp of emerging as a major economic power in Africa, with its bountiful endowment of strategic minerals, youthful workforce and exceptional clean, green hydropower potential. \"Ivanhoe Mines continues its commitment to work in partnership with the people of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, developing its mining industry to unlock the rich economic and social potential of this incredible country. This year we will complete the expansion of the Kamoa-Kakula Copper Complex, making it one of the world's top-three copper complexes, as well as return the historic, ultra-high-grade Kipushi zinc-silver-copper-germanium mine to production. In addition, we are incredibly excited about the geological potential across the Western Forelands, as we increase our exploration efforts this year to find new tier-one copper discoveries. We look forward to continuing to develop our warm and long-standing relationship with the DRC government and its people under President Tshisekedi's second term.\"DRC President, His Excellency Félix Tshisekedi, alongside Ivanhoe Mines' President Marna Cloete, cuts the ribbon to mark the formal opening of the Kamoa Centre of Excellence, during his visit to Kamoa-Kakula in October 2023.To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/3396/195121_60a6ee72e47e0974_002full.jpgDuring his visit to Kamoa-Kakula, His Ex...
