Kabezi is a town in Bujumbura Rural Province in Burundi.
Kabezi is in the Commune of Kabezi, just east of the RN 3 highway, which runs south from Bujumbura along the shore of Lake Tanganyika. It contains the Kabezi Hospital.
Rainbow Mining Burundi's rare earth ore processing plant was built in 2018 near the town of Kabezi between Lake Tanganyika to the west and the RN3 road to the east. The Kabezi plant did crushing and gravity separation. In August 2021 Rainbow Rare Earths announced that almost all staff had been placed on suspension.
