Entering Tanzania’s mining sector is hugely rewarding — but the licensing, environmental and local-content rules are complex, and mistakes are costly. As experienced mining consultants in Tanzania, TanBizLink helps investors, miners and businesses move quickly, stay compliant and structure ventures for success.
What we do
- Mining licence support — advising on and securing the right licence: Primary Mining Licence (PML), Mining Licence (ML), Special Mining Licence (SML) or Prospecting Licence (PL).
- Compliance & regulatory affairs — environmental permits, local-content and value-addition requirements, and dealings with the Mining Commission.
- Investment structuring — partnerships between foreign investors and local licence holders, and free-carried-interest arrangements.
- Feasibility & advisory — market intelligence, due diligence and project guidance across commodities.
- Business linkage — connecting investors, suppliers and service providers across the mining value chain.
