Moatize is an important city in the western Mozambique province of Tete, located in the Zambezi River Basin, about 180 kilometers from the provincial capital, Tete. As the heart of Mozambique's major coal-producing region, Moatize is well known for its rich mineral resources, with high quality coking coal reserves in particular occupying an important position in the country's energy economy.
The city has become a key node in the global supply of coking coal through the Moatize Coal Project, which has attracted investment from a number of international energy companies. In addition to coal, agriculture and animal husbandry are important local industries. Infrastructure has been gradually improved with the development of the mining industry, but overall the city still retains the original appearance of a landlocked town in Africa.
Moatize has a savannah climate with distinct dry and rainy seasons, and is surrounded by a typical savannah landscape. The local population is dominated by ethnic minorities such as the Shona, who have retained their traditional tribal culture. The city is located in the Zambezi ecosystem and is surrounded by a national nature reserve, combining the qualities of an industrial town and a natural ecology.
