Uganda’s mining sector is poised for growth, as a new market report by 6Wresearch projects a significant rise in demand for mining equipment and mineral processing technologies through 2030. The report indicates that both public and private investments are driving the import of specialized machinery for open cast, underground, and mineral processing operations. The data also show increasing diversification in the sector, with growth not only in gold but also in copper and non-ferrous minerals. Analysts say these trends highlight Uganda’s ambition to modernize its extractive industries and compete regionally in mining technology adoption.
