Hotspur Helium Granted Zambia Investment Licence to Advance Critical Mineral Exploration
12th December 2024

Meta description: Hotspur Helium has secured a Zambian Investment Licence, enabling it to fast-track primary helium exploration in southern Africa.

Hotspur Helium is pleased to announce it has been granted an Investment Licence by the Zambia Development Agency (ZDA), marking a significant milestone in the Company’s strategic expansion into southern Africa’s critical minerals sector.

The licence provides a range of fiscal and non-fiscal incentives, including fast-tracked permitting and government-backed support. This strengthens Hotspur Helium’s position in Zambia and reinforces its commitment to developing new sources of primary helium.

Zambia’s favourable geology, transparent regulatory framework, and pro-investment climate make it a compelling jurisdiction for helium exploration and critical mineral development. The Investment Licence enables Hotspur Helium to accelerate its operations and contribute to a secure, diversified global helium supply chain.

The Company looks forward to advancing its helium projects and building long term partnerships with local and national stakeholders as it works to establish Zambia as a key source of this strategic industrial gas.
