Angola plans to restart a railway used to bring metal to the Atlantic Ocean port of Lobito from some of the world’s richest copper fields after a four-decade halt due to a civil war.
The line from the port of Lobito will reach the border of the Democratic Republic of Congo in August, Luis Lopes Teixeira, technical director of Caminho de Ferro de Benguela E.P., said in an e-mailed response to questions on March 12.
