Best Answer

Zambia makes money mainly through exporting minerals and raw materials. The country's exports are divided into two categories. These include traditional and non-traditional exports. Traditional exports include metals such as copper, lead zinc, cobalt and nickel. Copper, which makes up approximately 50% of the country's exports, is the main source of Zambia's wealth. The country is Africa's largest producer of copper. Non-traditional exports include gemstones and agricultural products such as tobacco and cotton.
