Algeria launched first long-distance shipment of iron ore from the Gara Djebilet mine

Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune announced during the opening of the 33rd Algeria Production Fair, held at the Algiers Exhibition Centre, that iron ore extracted from the Gara Djebilet mine has begun to be transported to Oran via a railway line of approximately 2,000 kilometres. The President подчерк emphasised that this shipment marks the first such operation since Algeria gained independence.

During the fair, President Tebboune also visited the Tosyali Algeria stand, where he met with company officials. He underlined the strategic importance of industrial projects in Oran, noting that the existing infrastructure enables the launch of new investments, including a seawater desalination plant and a green hydrogen production unit.

The commencement of iron ore transportation from Gara Djebilet, covering nearly 2,000 kilometres from Tindouf to Oran, is being regarded as a turning point in the country’s industrial development. According to officials, the move is expected to accelerate the integration of domestic natural resources into industry while marking the beginning of a new phase aimed at strengthening Algeria’s economic sovereignty.
