NAMIB Minerals is pressing ahead with groundwork for a US$300 million investment to restore and expand operations at its gold assets in Zimbabwe, the firm said on Thursday.
It is a bold plan to reposition Zimbabwean gold on the global mining map.
Namib CEO, Ibrahima Sory Tall, toured Mazowe, Redwing, and How Mines this week, the statement said.
It said he expressed renewed confidence in the company’s strategy to restart and ramp up operations.
“Being on the ground in Zimbabwe reinforces our commitment to this landmark investment,” Tall said.
“By implementing our strategy, we will be developing world-class assets that directly support the Government of Zimbabwe’s Vision 2030, while also generating lasting value for our stakeholders”. Preliminary work has already begun at Mazowe and Redwing Mines, laying the foundation for redevelopment, the statement noted.
It said at How Mine, plans were underway to scale up production, as part of Namib’s five-year investment programme.
The investment will focus on environmental rehabilitation, reopening operations, increasing production capacity, and extensive exploration to double current resources.
