Activities under the PanAfGeo+ Invest – Country Window in the Democratic Republic of the Congo have been highlighted in local media, showcasing a series of specialised trainings in mining geochemistry and geological prospecting in Kolwezi (Lualaba Province) and Lubumbashi.
Implemented by BRGM in collaboration with the Geological Survey of Congo (SGN-C) and in partnership with local universities, these trainings brought together students and professionals to strengthen skills in geochemical exploration, combining theoretical learning with practical field applications.
The Kolwezi session focused on building foundational and applied knowledge in mining geochemistry, while the training in Lubumbashi further expanded this effort through a strategic programme on geochemical prospecting, reinforcing collaboration between academic institutions and national geological services.
These initiatives are part of the Country Window DRC activities, aimed at strengthening local capacity in geosciences and supporting the sustainable development of the mining sector, in line with broader efforts to enhance national expertise and resource governance.
