Zimbabwe shipped USD 4.735 billion in mineral exports over the opening nine months of 2026, with lithium displacing platinum group metals as the top export category. The aggregate figure reflects year-on-year growth exceeding 100 percent, confirming that Harare’s beneficiation drive has shifted trade flows from raw ore to processed concentrates.
津巴布韦在2026年前9个月实现矿产出口47.35亿美元，锂已取代铂金族金属成为头号出口品类。该总额同比增长超100%，证实哈拉雷的矿产增值战略已将贸易流从原矿石转向加工精矿。
The Harare administration enacted Statutory Instrument 213A in December 2022, prohibiting all raw lithium shipments and mandating in-country crushing or chemical refining. Customs authorities continue to block unprocessed spodumene at borders in 2026, meaning foreign operators must co-locate processing plants inside Zimbabwe to qualify for export permits.
哈拉雷政府于2022年12月颁布第213A号法定文书，禁止一切原锂矿发运，强制要求在境内完成破碎或化学精炼。2026年海关继续在边境拦截未加工锂辉石，意味着外国运营商必须在津巴布韦境内配套建设加工厂方可获得出口许可。
Capital machinery for mineral processing qualifies for import duty suspension under Zimbabwe’s Customs and Excise framework, while refined lithium exports are zero-rated for value-added tax. Harare simultaneously maintains a formal US$12 billion national mining revenue target, so beneficiation plant permits currently receive expedited ministerial processing.
矿产加工资本机械依据津巴布韦《海关与消费税法》享有进口关税暂停征收待遇，而精炼锂出口适用增值税零税率。哈拉雷同时维持全国矿业收入120亿美元的正式目标，因此选矿厂许可证目前可获得部长级加急处理。
Chinese-owned firms already dominate active concentrate operations across Zimbabwe’s lithium belt, yet local battery-grade lithium carbonate and hydroxide capacity remains negligible. The 4.735 billion dollar export figure consists almost entirely of concentrates, leaving chemical refining and cathode precursor projects as the next unclaimed tier.
中资企业已主导津巴布韦锂矿带内在产精矿业务，但本地电池级碳酸锂和氢氧化锂产能仍几乎为零。47.35亿美元的出口额几乎全部为精矿，化学精炼及正极前驱体项目仍是下一层尚未被占领的领域。
New entrants should first commission a Zimbabwe-specific mineralogical study to confirm ore grade and optimal beneficiation route, then incorporate a local subsidiary and file for a mining lease paired with a processing licence. Second, finalize equipment procurement contracts immediately, as capital goods import approvals for 2026 are moving faster than standard extraction permits but will tighten once environmental audits intensify ahead of the US$12 billion target year.
新进入者首先应委托开展津巴布韦专属矿相研究，确认矿石品位和最佳选矿路径，随后注册本地子公司并申请采矿租约及配套加工许可证。第二步须立即敲定设备采购合同，2026年资本货物进口审批目前快于标准开采许可，但在120亿美元目标年份临近、环境审计趋严后将会收紧。
