Description
Lomami is a province located in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Established in 2015, it is one of the newest provinces in the country, carved out from the former Katanga province. The provincial capital is the city of Likasi, which serves as an important economic and administrative center for the region.
The province is characterized by its rich natural resources, including minerals such as copper, cobalt, and gold. The Lomami area is part of the Congo Basin, which features diverse ecosystems including forests and savannas, providing habitat for numerous plant and animal species. The economic activities in Lomami are primarily centered around mining and agriculture.
Lomami's population is composed of various ethnic groups, each contributing to the province's cultural diversity. The local economy, while heavily influenced by mining, also includes subsistence farming. Despite its wealth in natural resources, the province faces challenges such as infrastructure development and access to education and healthcare.
