Who we are

A Zambian–Chinese partnership processing copper ore for small-scale miners and global markets since 2019.

A trusted market for small-scale copper miners

LXCO Investment Company Ltd is jointly owned by Chinese and Zambian local investors. We buy and process copper ore from artisanal operations—especially in North-Western Province—and from low-grade stockpiles left by ZCCM after privatisation in the 1990s.

We provide processing capacity for miners who can extract ore but lack facilities, while developing our own project mine site through ongoing exploration.
