Beltz Mining is an unlisted Australian public company founded in 2019, owning various mineral exploration rights in Zambia through our Zambian-registered subsidiary Kopano Mineral Resources Limited. Kopano has a growing number of highly prospective tenement holdings in the Zambian Copperbelt Province, making it one of the greatest repositories of copper deposits in the world.
Beltz owns~ 300km2 of high-potential exploration tenure and has secured mining leases with the Zambian Department of Mines. We have adopted a humanistic approach to business that looks beyond commercialisation by integrating tenets of socio-economic development that interact with and impact the industry’s value chain.
Our aim is to positively impact the social and economic landscape of Zambia through employment creation and projects that respond to the needs of our stakeholders, through our expertise in exploration and operationalising mining tenements.
We remain committed to efficiently exploring, developing and ultimately, operating mining concessions in Zambia using mining techniques and practices that reduce environmental impact and promote sustainability.
- Identify and advance copper exploration targets transitioning to develop economic projects
- Establish and secure strategic mining markets in Zambia to support our partners and stakeholders

Our team of experts, together with our founder Nkandu Beltz, a dual citizen of Zambia and Australia has the business acumen and legal knowledge to successfully navigate investors through the Zambian mining market.
We have extensive years of experience helping investors secure investment opportunities in Zambia and prepare them for launch by ensuring due diligence in matters relating to legal compliance and navigating the Zambian business environment.
We ensure that our partners incur minimal overhead operating costs – thanks to our dual office structure (Zambia and Perth, Australia) that utilises low-cost resources where possible. Our core team leverages the expertise gained from initial projects by applying it to subsequent development initiatives, thus ensuring efficiency and effectiveness in delivery.
