Africa is not only home to substantial reserves of strategic mineral resources，but also a key partner in advancing China’s mineral resource security strategy. Since 2000，under the framework of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation（FOCAC）action plans，Chinese mining enterprises have adopted innovative，localized，and adaptive cooperation models. These include three predominant approaches：resource-backed development financing mechanisms，Economic and Trade Cooperation Zones，and the Winning Alliance International Consortium. These efforts have enabled China to undertake world-class projects focused on copper，cobalt，and other critical mineral resources across Africa，thereby strengthening its position in the global mining landscape. The coordinated development of mining and infrastructure construction aligns with the developmental priorities of African resource-rich countries，contributing positively to their economic and social progress. However，the China-Africa mining cooperation is also faces emerging risks and challenges. Despite this，the outlook remains promising. The two sides have highly complementary interests and a solid foundation for sustained collaboration. Furthermore，accelerating global transformations present new opportunities for growth and partnership. It is therefore imperative to establish a comprehensive investment security framework and long-term strategic roadmap for the development of strategic mineral resources between China and Africa，diversifying international cooperation channels and enhancing corporate governance，thereby promoting the sustainable and mutually beneficial development of China-Africa mining cooperation.
