 Congo creates task force for US minerals deal, cabinet minutes say


Democratic Republic of Congo has approved a task force to speed up implementation of its strategic minerals ​partnership with the United States, according to cabinet minutes seen ‌by Reuters on Tuesday, as Kinshasa seeks to attract more Western investment into its copper and cobalt sectors.


The decision marks the latest step in Congo's efforts ​to diversify funding sources beyond China and strengthen ties ​with Washington, which is seeking to challenge China's dominance of critical ⁠minerals supply chains.

The deal has already ​delivered a U.S.-backed mining investment through Virtus Minerals and expanded copper offtake arrangements between state miner Gecamines and traders Mercuria and Glencore, boosting Congolese sales to Western markets.
