Zimbabwe will host the Zimbabwe Gold Investment Conference 2025 in Harare on Nov. 17–18, a gathering aimed at attracting international capital to develop the country’s largely underexplored gold reserves.
The conference in Harare will bring together global financiers, institutional investors and senior government officials as authorities seek fresh foreign investment to revive the mining sector, a key driver of the economy.
Industry veteran Algy Cluff, executive chairman of Cluff Africa, is expected to deliver insights on long-term trends in gold markets and investment cycles. Panels will focus on unlocking credit lines through institutions such as Afreximbank and TDB Group, and on how listings on exchanges including the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and London’s AIM could boost liquidity and visibility for Zimbabwean producers.
Geologists are also due to outline the scale of the country’s untapped gold potential, saying vast regions remain underexplored and competitive for early-stage discovery.
Laura Persse, speaking on behalf of Opus Investor during the conference’s Vote of Thanks, said Zimbabwe offered a rare alignment of supportive policy, strong gold prices and high-grade deposits.
“We are honoured to be convening the Zimbabwe Gold Investment Conference 2025,” she said. “This conference recognises that Zimbabwe stands at an inflection point … ensuring the mineral wealth translates into sustainable national prosperity.”
The event will close with a high-level discussion, “Leveraging Zimbabwe’s Golden Moment,” featuring speakers from the World Bank and the Mutapa Investment Fund on strategies to convert mineral wealth into broader economic growth. Organisers say the conference aims to position Zimbabwe as a competitive gold-mining investment destination.
