Thirty-one (31) Anjin Investments employees were fired last year alone, while four others were recently suspended pending investigations over the alleged theft of diamonds in <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Chiadzwa">Chiadzwa.</a>
Some employees are working in cahoots with diamond dealers to prejudice their employers of the precious gems, according to investigations conducted by <a href="https://www.manicapost.co.zw/31-fired-as-gems-vanish-in-chiadzwa/">The Manica Post</a>.
The investigations also established that several diamond dealers, some of foreign origin but based in Mutare, recruit employees in order to have easy access to the diamonds.
It is understood that well-orchestrated syndicates of employees working in the Density Medium Separator and the Corn Crusher departments of the mining plants are taking advantage of lapses in security concentration to steal diamonds that are then passed on to dealers at agreed prices.
In some cases, security officers are also part of the syndicates.
Anjin Investments (Private) Limited’s public relations officer, Mr Special Matarirano confirmed this development. The Manica Post cites him as saying:
<blockquote>
Our CCTV observed some irregular behaviour by four of our workers and the company’s policy is that any suspicious behaviour from employees who works in the red zone attracts an immediate suspension pending thorough investigations.
Hence, those four employees were suspended pending investigations. The results of the investigations will guide the decision the company will take.
Last year alone, a total of 31 employees were relieved of their duties by the company after being found on the wrong side of the code of conduct.
In line with the security global trends, Anjin has, over the years, been strengthening its security. In this regard, the company has been installing and upgrading its integrated security systems.
This has led to the integration of physical and technological security. As a company, we have also tightened up and sealed lapses in our security systems.
The company is taking no prisoners in securing the product and the equipment.
</blockquote>
The Zimbabwe Consolidated Diamond Company (ZCDC), another other company carrying out mining operations in Chiadzwa, is said to have also fired a number of employees over the theft of diamond pieces.

Anjin Fires 31 Workers Over Theft Of Diamonds

The World Bank has projected that Zimbabwe’s economy will grow at a modest growth rate in 2023 against a weakening global economic growth outlook, according to Xinhua.
Speaking at the Economic and Business Outlook Symposium, organized by the Confederation of Zimbabwe Industries in the Zimbabwean capital of Harare on Wednesday, World Bank Senior Economist for Zimbabwe Stella Illieva said Zimbabwe’s economic growth is projected to be around 3.6 per cent in 2023, a slight increase from 3.4 per cent recorded in 2022.
Commenting on global growth projections, Illieva said growth in the sub-Saharan Africa region is more promising than the global outlook, as global growth is expected to decelerate to 1.7 per cent this year, the weakest in three decades.
She said rising geopolitical tensions and trade fragmentation elsewhere as well as climate change shocks will result in a significant slowdown of growth.
Illieva added that weakening economic activities in the global economy will have spillover effects on emerging markets and developing countries, which include Zimbabwe. She said:
<blockquote>
Aggressive monetary policy tightening to contain high inflation, deteriorating financial conditions, and continued disruptions from the war in Ukraine are the drivers of this worsening economic performance on a global scale.
</blockquote>
Growth in South Africa, the major trading partner of Zimbabwe, is expected to weaken further this year to 1.4 per cent before reaching 1.8 per cent in 2024, she said.
In addition, Illieva said the weak growth in global markets will have an adverse effect on the prices of metals and other commodities which Zimbabwe depends on. She said: 
<blockquote>
Prices of gold, tobacco, and platinum have been in decline since 2022; this trend is expected to continue this year, at least for gold and tobacco.
</blockquote>
She added that unfavourable terms of trade mean higher import bills and cost of living, fewer exports, and pressure on the domestic currency and labour market.
Her projections are slightly lower than the 3.8 per cent projections made by Finance and Economic Development Minister <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Mthuli_Ncube">Mthuli Ncube</a> last year during the presentation of the <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/2023-budget-allocations-to-government-departments/">2023 national budget last November</a>.
Ncube said the growth would be driven by favourable international commodity prices, a good agricultural season, and tight monetary and fiscal policy, among other reasons.

World Bank Projects Zimbabwe's Economy Will Have A Modest Growth Rate In 2023

The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) has announced measures that will be taken to implement the policy which directs miners to pay <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2022/10/01/govt-wants-miners-to-pay-royalties-in-diamonds-gold-platinum/">fifty per cent (50%) of royalties due to the state in the form of the concerned mineral</a>. In a statement seen by Pindula News, the governor of the RBZ, John Mangudya said:
<blockquote>
<h2>COLLECTION, HOLDING AND MANAGEMENT OF RESERVE ASSETS BY THE RESERVE BANK OF ZIMBABWE</h2>
Following amendments to Finance Act [Chapter 23:04] and the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe Act [Chapter 22:15], respectively providing for, (i) the collection of fifty per centum (50%) of royalties in kind, that is to say, in the form of the mineral concerned, and (ii) the Bank to maintain, over and above gold, reserve assets in the form of diamonds, platinum and lithium (and any other precious stone or precious or valuable metal specified by the Bank by notice in a statutory instrument) in a form and of a purity or of a quality or of a kind specified by the Bank, the Bank wishes to advise miners/mining houses, relevant stakeholders and the public of the following arrangements to implement the legislative changes:
(a) With effect from 1 October 2022, miners of gold, diamonds, platinum and lithium (and any other precious stone or precious or valuable metal specified by the Bank by notice in a statutory instrument) shall be enjoined to pay fifty percent of royalties due to the State in kind, that is, in the form of the mineral concerned.
(b) The rationale for the legislative changes is to enable the Bank to collect, hold and manage reserve assets for the benefit of the Republic of Zimbabwe and as such all in-kind royalties shall be delivered to the Bank.
(c) The delivery of in-kind royalties to the Bank, and holding, maintenance and subsequent marketing of same, shall be subject to and in compliance with applicable industry practices and regulatory requirements.
(d) It shall be the responsibility of the Bank to facilitate the collection or delivery of the in-kind portion of the royalties and for the avoidance of doubt, only the cash portion shall be collectible by ZIMRA.
(e) In order to ensure that the value of the reserve assets held is preserved or enhanced, the Bank shall have the discretion to determine which prescribed mineral or metal to keep, hold or maintain from time to time, as dictated by prevailing local and international economic conditions and commodity pricing trends.
(f) In line with its mandate to hold, maintain and preserve the value of the reserve assets, where the Bank considers and determines that it is not economical or possible to keep any mineral or metal specified in terms of section 49(1)(c1) of the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe Act [Chapter 22:15], it shall facilitate and make arrangements that the portion of the royalty payable in kind is converted to cash which the Bank will utilise to procure and purchase another specified mineral or metal, for the equivalent value, which it will keep as a reserve asset.

RBZ Update On Miners' Payment Of 50% Of Royalties In Gold, Platinum, Diamonds, Lithium

Villagers in Marange District have petitioned the government to withdraw the recently deployed state security agents whom they accuse of human rights violations, including torture.
Last week, representatives of the villagers held a meeting with Mines and Mining Development minister Winston Chitando, state security agents, and Marange diamond mining companies among other stakeholders in Harare to discuss the issue.
The chief executive officer of Chiadzwa Community Ownership Trust Hardwork Mukwada represented the villagers.
Mukwada refused to comment on the outcome of the meeting when he was contacted by <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/thestandard/local-news/article/200002081/fresh-rights-abuses-hit-marange">The Standard</a> saying this will jeopardise the engagements. He said:
<blockquote>
It was a closed-door meeting and it is not proper for me to discuss what was discussed in the meeting.
l don’t want to discuss what happened in the meeting because this will jeopardise what we discussed in the meeting.
I am not brushing you aside but I am leading an engagement with some authorities and communities so please don’t publish it.
</blockquote>
The Standard reported a source as saying Mukwada and other civil society organisations (CSOs) highlighted the abuses being perpetrated by State security agents in Marange. Said the source:
<blockquote>
Mukwada also pointed to the arrogance of the base commander of the soldiers (name withheld) who has refused to engage with the traditional leaders upon request.
He also spoke about the issue of security checkpoints where villagers are being asked to pay cash and that they solicit cash from passers-by and commuter omnibuses.
</blockquote>
Newman Chiadzwa of Chiadzwa Development Community Trust (CDTT) also confirmed the meeting and human rights abuses.
Chitando reportedly spoke briefly during the meeting before calling for continuous dialogue among stakeholders.

Human Rights Abuses Hit Marange

The United States of America said that it has not banned the importation of rough diamonds from <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Marange" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Marange</a>, Zimbabwe.
US Embassy spokesperson, Stacy Lomba, on Wednesday stated that a Withhold Release Order (WRO) is not a ban on Zimbabwe’s rough diamonds but that importers have to prove that their diamonds are not mined with forced labour. She said:
<blockquote>WRO is not a ban on imports of artisanal rough diamonds from Zimbabwe. Rather, importers who contend that their particular diamonds were not mined with forced labour can submit evidence to CBP that supports their contention in accordance with our laws.</blockquote>

Permanent Secretary for Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Nick_Mangwana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ndavaningi Nick Mangwana</a> told The Herald on Tuesday night that Washington’s decision is regrettable. He said:
<blockquote>This is a regrettable development because the reason the US authorities are citing, namely that Zimbabwean diamonds are being produced under forced labour, is a blatant and shameless lie that will surprise even cynics amongst us.
… apparently, invoking the repulsive prospect of alleged forced labour is a new nomenclature for seeking to bar Zimbabwe’s diamonds from the international market after previous attempts to label Zimbabwean diamonds as blood diamonds failed.</blockquote>

United States Of America Blacklists Marange Diamonds

Former Finance Minister and opposition politician Tendai Biti has said that former president Robert Mugabe never believed reports that his ministers were looting diamonds from the Chiadzwa diamond fields. Speaking at a rally in Murewa, Biti said,
<blockquote>Zanu PF politicians are now like the pigs that I rear in Murewa because of the high level of theft of the country’s resources that they are involved in. When I was the minister of finance, I used to take reports from the Global Witness and Kimberly Process diamond certifiers to the then president Robert Mugabe on how diamonds were being looted by his ministers, but he did not believe me…In the emails, my sources would tell me that one of the looters was Mpofu. At the end, $15 billion was looted and no one has been prosecuted to this day.</blockquote>

Mugabe Never Believed Me When I Told Him His Ministers Were Looting Diamonds: Tendai Biti

Zimbabwe Consolidated Diamond Company (ZCDC) chief executive officer, Morris Mpofu admitted that some of the employees at his company were conniving with illegal diamond miners to steal the Chiadzwa diamonds. Speaking at an all-stakeholders diamond security conference, Mpofu said,
<blockquote>We are worried about connivance and syndicates within the company. The issue is they are working with illegal buyers with cash and they wave cash. We have got within our company, illegal dealers and illegal buyers and this is the reason we constantly look at our security. There are also intrusions in the mining fields. The majority of the illegal miners … come from outside Chiadzwa and civic societies are very aware of this.</blockquote>

Zim Consolidated Diamond Company Boss Admits Workers Are Looting Diamonds From Chiadzwa

The government through the Ministry of Mines and Mining Development has reduced the ground rental fees for diamonds from $3000 per hectare per year to $225 per hectare per year. However, the fees for other minerals have not been changed. Here is the statement from the Ministry of Mines and Mining Development:
<blockquote>MINISTRY OF MINES AND MINING DEVELOPMENT 
PRESS STATEMENT ON STATUTORY INSTRUMENT 4 OF 2018
The Ministry of Mines and Mining Development wishes to advise that the ground rental fees for diamonds have been reduced from $3,000.00 per hectare per year down to $225.00 per hectare per year. This has been done in the context of the Ease of Doing Business to facilitate investment in the diamond mining industry. With respect to all other minerals, there is no change in the fees charged.
Government has however taken the opportunity to remove uncertainty, duplication and ambiguity that was causing confusion in the mining sector ground rentals/inspection fees arising from different interpretation of SI 10 of 2016. However, it has been noted that the effect of the Statutory Instrument 4 of 2018 has been such that miners will be required to pay more in respect of mining blocks. Government is, therefore, currently reviewing the affected fees and an appropriate statement will be issued within the next 30 days.
The Ministry acknowledges and welcomes the positive feedback we continue to receive on this issue from stakeholders.

Government Reduces Ground Rental Fees For Diamonds From $3000 To $225

Disgraced former United States congressman Mel Reynolds who is facing charges of tax evasion in his own country, has claimed that President Robert Mugabe was paid a $100 000 bribe by businessman Elzie Higginbottom. Reynolds raised the allegations while he was cross-examining Higginbottom. He claimed that the $100 000 bribe was for a diamond concession in Zimbabwe and that Mugabe had agreed to split the profits from the mine with Higginbottom.
However, Reynolds did not produce any evidence to support his allegations.
Reynolds came to Zimbabwe in 2014 and claimed that he was going to invest US$145m into developing a five-star Hilton Hotel and an office complex in Harare. The deal never materialised and he was later arrested at a Harare hotel on pornography charges which were dismissed by the courts. He was found guilty of staying in the country on an expired visa and deported.

Former US Congressman Alleges That Mugabe Was Paid A $100 000 Bribe For A Diamond Concession

London based anti-corruption group, Global Witness has released a report in which it accuses the country’s top security people and political leaders of having looted the Marange diamonds. Some of the key findings from the report are as follows:
<blockquote>Mbada Diamonds held the largest concession in Marange, yet the identity of the owner of a 25 per cent stake in this lucrative asset has remained a closely guarded secret. Global Witness has found mounting evidence to suggest that Robert Mhlanga, a retired member of Zimbabwe’s security forces, ally of the ruling party, and alleged former Presidential pilot, stands behind the hidden share.
Diamond Mining Corporation (DMC) was formed as joint venture by the Government of Zimbabwe with a private investor. This is despite evidence suggesting that the individuals behind the company were involved in extensive smuggling of Marange diamonds for several years before diamonds could be legally exported under the Kimberley Process.</blockquote>

The Marange fields have produced 900 000 carats of diamonds this year, which is very low compared to the  3,2 million carats produced in 2015.  A 62% drop from last year. Productivity has been hampered by  court cases where the miners are challenging the government’s decision to takeover the mines.
Mines Minister <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/Walter_Chidhakwa">Walter Chidhakwa</a> addressing a parliamentary committee on mines and energy committee on Monday said:
<blockquote>So far delivered to ZCDC in terms of weight, the total is 924,388 carats and that compares very badly with 3,2 million carats for 2015. The explanation is that the 924,000 carats are coming from the two mining locations not the seven mining locations. So we need to finalise the court cases.</blockquote>
