Ethiopia
Habesha–Kilkile
The Habesha–Kilkile Project is a district-scale lithium, tantalum, and niobium exploration asset located in southern Ethiopia, within and adjacent to the globally significant Kenticha rare-element pegmatite field. Covering approximately 62 km² across two contiguous exploration blocks, the project benefits from extensive historical geological work, demonstrated rare-metal mineralisation, and proximity to long-standing mining operations. Anibesa is advancing the project through systematic, modern exploration aimed at defining and drill-testing priority targets, positioning Habesha–Kilkile as a cornerstone asset within the Company’s energy metals portfolio.
Lithium, tantalum, and niobium mineralization hosted in rare-element pegmatites, with multiple ranked targets defined through historical drilling, trenching, geophysics, and surface sampling. Initial programs are focused on drill testing priority zones within the first year of exploration.
A ~62 km² land package across two contiguous exploration blocks in southern Ethiopia, approximately 400 km south of Addis Ababa. The project benefits from established access, elevations between 1,400–1,900 metres, and proximity to existing mining infrastructure in the Kenticha district.
Located within the Kenticha LCT pegmatite field, one of the world’s most significant rare-element districts with more than two decades of historical tantalum production. Regional geology and past work indicate strong potential for lithium, tantalum, niobium, and associated rare elements across Anibesa’s licence areas.
Tanzania
Niobium Project
The Tanzania Niobium Project is a strategically located niobium-focused asset in the Mbeya region of south-western Tanzania, a well-established and mining-friendly jurisdiction. The project is centred on carbonatite-hosted mineralisation with characteristics supportive of a large-tonnage, long-life operation. Benefiting from proximity to power, rail, highways, and regional air access, Anibesa is advancing the project with a focus on disciplined evaluation and development, positioning it to supply a critical metal essential to infrastructure, advanced manufacturing, and next-generation technologies.
Niobium mineralisation hosted within a carbonatite system, offering potential for simple open-pit mining, favourable metallurgy, and a long-life operation with strong margin characteristics.
Located in the Mbeya region of southwest Tanzania, approximately 700 km west of Dar es Salaam, with direct access to rail, major highways, regional air transport, and industrial power infrastructure.
Carbonatite-hosted mineralisation within a stable and mining-friendly jurisdiction. The geological setting is supportive of large-tonnage, long-life deposits, aligning with growing global demand for niobium in infrastructure, advanced alloys, and energy-related technologies.
