Mberengwa residents voiced their discontent with Kuvimba Mining House’s failure to prioritise their needs and concerns. They expressed these concerns following an interview on ZiFM radio, hosted by Farai Mwakutuya, with Member of Parliament for Mberengwa West, Tafanana Zhou, on November 22nd, 2023. The interview centred around the lithium mining activities of Kuvimba Mining House at Sandawana Mine, situated along the Great Dyke.
The interview discussed various aspects related to the mining activities of Kuvimba House at Sandawana Mine and the development of the Mberengwa district. Key points included the relocation of Sandawana Primary School, road rehabilitation, engagement with the local community, employment opportunities, skill development, infrastructure improvements, environmental concerns, and the sponsorship of Chiefs’ courts and a hospital. Here are some of the important points discussed during the interview:
<blockquote>
1. Sandawana Primary School will be relocated from its current location. 
2. A road stretching about 10 kilometres from Sandawana to Zverenje is being rehabilitated to connect Mberengwa and West Nicholson. 
3. Kuvimba House has engaged with the local community through their leaders, particularly the Chiefs, to ensure benefits reach the general population. 
4. Tafanana Zhou called for the rehabilitation of roads in Mberengwa district and wants Kuvimba House to pave the roads. 
5. Sandawana Mine has employed approximately 1,000 local people since its reopening, with around 20% of employees being women. 
6. Local businesses are benefiting from the mining activities by supplying goods and services to the mine. 
7. Kuvimba House plans to build 16 Chiefs’ courts and is sponsoring the construction of a hospital. 
9. Tafanana Zhou expressed confidence in Kuvimba House’s efforts to mitigate environmental degradation. 
10. Local residents are suggesting the establishment of a plant for beneficiation in Mberengwa. 
11. Ordinary people in the area desire improvements such as better road infrastructure, hospitals, on-the-job training, and the construction of the Jeka Bridge. 
12. Tafanana Zhou said they won’t pressure Kuvimba into reconstructing the Jeka (Tandavarai) Bridge.
</blockquote>
Responding to the interview, residents expressed concern about the prioritisation of benefits for chiefs over community development projects. They argue that funds should be invested in initiatives like clinics, schools, infrastructure, and attracting further investment, rather than solely benefiting local chiefs. Said one resident:
<blockquote>
There isn’t anything for people with high academic qualifications from the locals which means little trickles into the communities by way of salaries. Secondly, the idea of overdoing things for chiefs in my view isn’t of any benefit to the suffering people. Chiefs already have hefty perks for doing nothing to the extent of being awarded all-terrain vehicles when police stations and clinics have nothing. Focusing on chiefs in my view is populist and counterproductive. Kuvimba should embark on more meaningful CRS such as perhaps equipping our clinics, and schools, ensuring communities have clean running water, rehabilitation of bridges dip tanks, tarring of roads and constructing a dormitory mini town to serve as a nucleus to attract further investment into the area. District administrators’ offices should be funded to decentralise and have a satellite station there so that our people begin to see development. 
</blockquote>
The residents also raised concerns about the lack of accountability and transparency in agreements and plans between Kuvimba and the chiefs. They question the absence of concrete timelines and information regarding the mining company’s investment in the community. Dr Takavafira Zhou, the President of the Progressive Teachers Union of Zimbabwe (PTUZ), said:
<blockquote>
There are certainly fundamental weaknesses in the submission by Mp Tafanana Zhou in the ZiFM radio interview.  There is virtually no timeframe for rebuilding and relocation of Sandawana Primary Schools by Kuvimba and the MP sees nothing wrong with that.
There is no timeframe for building a hospital and the MP sees nothing wrong with that.
Chiefs met Kuvimba representatives in Zvishavane but there was nothing concrete agreed upon except verbal promises, and the MP sees nothing wrong with that. Building 16 chiefs’ courts is certainly not a priority for the majority of the people of Mberengwa wallowing in poverty and misery, a consequence of natural resource plunder from Mberengwa during the colonial period and in independent Zimbabwe.
Assuming Kuvimba has employed 1000 locals which is doubtful, has the MP considered the number of workers the Co has? To date, Kuvimba has more than 5000 workers, and 1000 is insignificant. Kuvimba is also well known for its slave wages to general labourers.
Is the MP aware that the construction of a railway line from Mberengwa to Mozambique is at an advanced stage in order to enhance the looting of Lithium by Kuvimba?
</blockquote>
Residents also expressed frustration with the lack of infrastructure development in Mberengwa. They complain about the poor state of roads, bridges, and other infrastructure, and accuse the mining company of neglecting its responsibility to repair and maintain these facilities. Dr Takavafira Zhou added:
<blockquote>
Kuvimba destroyed the Sandawana-Chegato-Mabika-Yorks Road; the Sandawana-Danga-Yorks Road; Sandawana-Mataga road and is now running away from the responsibility of repairing the low-lying bridges, and tarring the roads and now prefers to go through Zverenje and the MP sees nothing wrong with that.
Today Kuvimba has plundered more than 2.5 million tonnes of Lithium from Sandawana and there is virtually nothing to show for this to the people of Mberengwa.
</blockquote>
Residents compare the lack of community development in Mberengwa to other mining areas where mines have invested in schools, clinics, and infrastructure projects. Said another resident:
<blockquote>
Other communities where there are mines have benefited a lot. Check communities around Mimosa Mine, Zimplats, and Unki. Here in Mberengwa mines don’t even bother to construct proper roads for accessing their mines. We will definitely benefit from those roads as well. Mimosa has built a lot of schools, and clinics, and upgraded the Zvishavane District Hospital to a better standard. If the same can happen in Mberengwa we will be grateful. Just schools and hospitals would be a bare minimum. Or at least adding ma block pazvikoro (at schools) or textbooks, computers and stationery.
</blockquote>
Another resident said:
<blockquote>
Mberengwa is always open to looting. Where are Inyala Mine, Rhonda Mine even the Original Sandawana Mine?
</blockquote>
Residents also called for better representation and understanding of their community’s needs from leaders. They criticised current leaders for prioritising their own interests and called for leaders who prioritise sustainable development and have a better understanding of the community’s needs. Said a resident named Martin:
<blockquote>
It’s tragic. Our leaders, political and traditional, put themselves ahead of the people. There can be no better illustration. Chief should have identified more needy people from within their communities instead. But l guess that’s the African way. Mukuru ndiye anotanga kunhonga nyama.
</blockquote>
There is also criticism of the Member of Parliament for not actively engaging with the local populace and adequately representing their interests. Fumed one resident:
<blockquote>
The legislator needs a lot of help from Lithium Community Group. Let Public Relations or a spokesman/person talk for the mine. Kwete kuti Jeka Bridge rino divider attention ye Kuvimba House. The Legislator does not know the depth of the Mining House’s purse. Yes, the Mining Giant may have their own plans but there is nothing wrong in asking them to look Eastwards. As they have embarked on this huge mining venture they may receive big heavy mining equipment by railway via Ngungumbane who knows.
Jeka Bridge has stood unattended for far far too long. It’s now a nasty eye sore. Zvinotonyadzisa kuti (it’s embarrassing) how many MPs have come and gone vachisiya rakadaro (leaving the bridge in its poor state).
</blockquote>
The Jeka/Tandavarai Bridge, located on the Mwenezi River, was swept away by floods in 2017 when the Chimwe Dam walls were breached. As a result, villagers from both sides were unable to cross the river for nearly two months due to the ongoing flooding. Although attempts were made to restore the bridge, it is now described as a makeshift structure. Additionally, there are allegations that the funds allocated for the bridge’s rehabilitation were misappropriated.

Mberengwa Residents Not Happy With Lithium Miner Kuvimha House, MP Tafanana Zhou

Kuvimba Mining House (KMH) plans to invest US$250 million into the construction of a beneficiation plant at its lithium mine operation, Sandawana Mines.
KMH is 65% owned by the government. It took over Sandawana Mines in 2019 and has so far invested US$56 million.
Sandawana Mines general manager Godwin Gambiza told <a href="https://newsday.co.zw/thestandard/business/article/200014650/kuvimba-to-sink-us250m-into-beneficiation-plant">The Standard</a> in an interview last week during a media tour of the mine that KMH has commenced feasibility studies for a 4.5 million-tonne per annum beneficiation plant. Said Gambiza:
<blockquote>
The beneficiation plant, it has got two phases. Phase one of it is the dense medium separation. We have budgeted about US$50 million for that.
Phase two of the beneficiation plant is the floatation plant itself.
For that one we’ve budgeted US$200 million. So, altogether that gives you US$250 million for a combined beneficiation plant.
The work has already commenced in terms of the feasibility studies.
Some metallurgical tests are being conducted on our material so that we can establish the stability of our own.
But looking at the timelines themselves, we are saying in 12 to 18 months we should have completed everything, including the commissioning of the plants.
</blockquote>
KMH Group chief executive officer Simba Chinyemba said that they are currently evaluating joint venture potential with some of the world’s largest companies in the lithium battery technology space.
Sandawana Mine is situated in the Mberengwa District and is rich in vast mineral resources that include tantalite, mica, emeralds, copper and gold.
The mining lease and claim holdings cover a 21-kilometre-long strip along the Mweza Mountain Range.

Kuvimba Plans To Invest US$250 Million Into A Beneficiation Plant

A 49-year-old woman from Kariba has been sentenced to five years in jail for illegal possession of emeralds worth US$3,015.60. Rutendo Moyo, who represented herself, pleaded guilty to the charge and was sentenced by Harare Magistrate Ruth Moyo.
<h3>What transpired?</h3>
According to reports, detectives from the  Criminal Investigation Department (CID) Minerals Flora and Fauna Unit in Harare received a tip-off from an anonymous source that Moyo was in possession of emeralds. She was subsequently arrested while walking along Samora Michael Avenue, and the detectives recovered four pieces of emeralds from her. 
<h3>Emeralds in Zimbabwe:</h3>
Zimbabwe’s primary source of emeralds was historically the Sandawana Mine, located in the Mweza Range in Mberengwa District, Midlands Province. The mine is renowned for producing high-quality emeralds with a unique bluish-green hue and has a long history dating back to the 1950s. Sandawana Mine was once among the world’s largest emerald mines, but it shut down due to declining production and loss of market competitiveness. Presently, Kuvimba Mining House aims to reopen the mine, albeit as a lithium producer. The abandoned mine, previously owned by Rio Tinto, was the site of an illegal mining rush in 2020, resulting in a ban on raw lithium export in December. Kuvimba, primarily owned by the government, foresees the possibility of the site containing the country’s largest battery metal resource.
<h3>Illegal Possession of Precious Stones in Zimbabwe:</h3>
In Zimbabwe, possessing precious stones without proper authorisation is illegal. The <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Minerals_Marketing_Corporation_of_Zimbabwe/">Minerals Marketing Corporation of Zimbabwe (MMCZ)</a> is the exclusive agent for marketing and selling all minerals produced in Zimbabwe except for silver and gold. Trading without proper permits is a criminal offence punishable by imprisonment or fines. The government aims to curb the illegal trade in precious stones associated with criminal activities such as money laundering, smuggling, and funding of armed groups. Obtaining proper authorisation is essential before possessing or trading minerals in Zimbabwe.
The illegal trade of minerals is causing Zimbabwe to lose billions of dollars annually. The country’s long, porous borders with neighbouring countries make it challenging to regulate the flow of minerals, resulting in smuggling and significant revenue losses for the government.

Woman Jailed 5 Years For Illegal Possession Of Emeralds

Trojan Nickel Mine requires US$60 million over the next five years for the ongoing mine development programme that has seen operations being resuscitated. 
Trojan Nickel Mine is a subsidiary of Victoria Falls Stock Exchange-listed Bindura Nickel Corporation (BNC).
BNC managing director Engineer Thomas Lusiyano said since the acquisition of BNC acquisition by Kuvimba Mining House (KMH), US$12 million is being invested into the project annually.
Speaking in an interview with <a href="https://www.sundaymail.co.zw/us60m-to-transform-trojan-nickel-mine">The Sunday Mail</a> following a recent media tour of Trojan Mine in Bindura, organised by KMH, Luyisano said:
<blockquote>
The bulk of that investment has been going towards procurement of underground mining equipment and development.
Over the next five years, we would need approximately US$60 million for Trojan Nickel Mine.
The bulk of that investment is going to go into two areas: Firstly, the continuous acquisition and upgrading of underground mining mobile equipment. Secondly, for us to undertake capital development that is going to unlock new areas for mining.
</blockquote>
KMH has acquired some other mines across the country, including Shamva Gold Mine, Sandawana, Elvington, Jena and Great Dyke Investments.
It has also bought a brand-new exploration rig worth US$1 million as well as long-haul dumps, production rigs and support rigs.
In 2021, KMH paid a US$5.2 million dividend to Government and other local shareholders.
Luyisano added that Trojan Nickel Mine will focus on capital development to unlock areas for production, and this will require US$60 million over the next five years.
In the past, the company produced low-volume high-grade resources, which made up only 3% of the deposit. This resulted in the mine using only 40% of its installed capacity. The company is now seeking to transition to fully utilize 100% of the installed capacity, which is one million tonnes of ore processed per annum.
He said by the end of the 2024 financial year, Trojan would have completely transitioned to a high-volume low-grade mine using the installed capacity, both underground and in the concentrator on the surface.
Nickel is one of the key components used in the manufacture of batteries for electric vehicles (EVs) – cars, buses, and trucks that run on electricity stored in batteries or supplied by a charging station, instead of using gasoline or diesel.
EVs are becoming more popular due to advancements in battery technology, more charging stations, and incentives to promote low-emission vehicles.

Trojan Nickel Mine Requires US$60 Million In The Next Five Years

Villagers in Mberengwa have claimed that Kuvimba Mining House took their lithium ore from Sandawana Mine and did not pay for it.
In late 2022, at least 5 000 artisanal miners invaded the former emerald mine after the discovery of lithium.
The government then moved in to control lithium mining activities at Sandawana after it emerged that some foreigners were buying the ore from locals for US$200 per tonne and exporting it.
The Zimbabwe Miners Federation (ZMF) was given exclusive rights to supervise mining activities while selling the ore to Kuvimba.
In November, Kuvimba and ZMF officials committed to assisting the artisanal miners with mining equipment and also buying the lithium at improved prices.
However, villagers who spoke to the Independent alleged that Kuvimba has reneged on its promise to villagers. Said the villagers:
<blockquote>
We were selling lithium to buyers including Chinese who were paying us as much as US$200 [per tonne] but when Kuvimba moved in they are paying as little as US$50 per tonne.
We were expecting Kuvimba, as a government entity, to try and match these prices but we were fooled when the officials intervened.
</blockquote>
The Independent reported sources as saying Kuvimba took away lithium ore that had been mined by villagers in the Upper and Lower Varichem and Gwamakudo areas. Said the source:
<blockquote>
Kuvimba sent a huge fleet of tipper trucks onto the mountains and loaded all the lithium ore that we had extracted and disappeared into the night.
We lost compressors and their accessories. They even took our shovels and wheelbarrows.
At least they could have paid us the little they owed us and returned our equipment.
People are afraid to go to Zvishavane to claim their equipment for fear of arrest and we know it is stored with the police.
</blockquote>
Villagers also claimed that ZMF was not helping them as promised by the leadership, saying the federation was demanding a US$5 registration fee from each villager.
ZMF provincial chairman Makumba Nyenje told the Independent that 1 200 miners were registered in Mberengwa.
Mines and Mining Development Deputy Minister Polite Kambamura said he was not aware of villagers losing their lithium ore without being paid for it by Kuvimba. | <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/theindependent/amp/local-news/article/200006677/lithium-heist-in-mberengwa-as-kuvimba-loots-villagers-ore-without-paying">Zimbabwe Independent</a>

Mberengwa Villagers Accuse Kuvimba Of "Looting" Their Lithium Ore

Beitbridge Border Post officials Friday intercepted a consignment of lithium ore on three haulage trucks belonging to one Bernard Tafadzwa Mnangagwa.
The ore was being smuggled from Zimbabwe to South Africa and was declared as manganese, <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200005657/trucks-smuggling-lithium-caught-at-beitbridge">NewsDay</a> reported.
Mines and Mineral Development ministry officials arrived at the border post on Friday morning to attend to the trucks, now under police and Zimbabwe National Army guard.
It is understood that the raw mineral was extracted from places near Sandawana in <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Mberengwa">Mberengwa</a>, and transported to Bulawayo, where it was kept near Khami Cafe close to Bulawayo’s Vehicle Inspection Department.
The mineral was reportedly stored there to facilitate smuggling.
This comes after the <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/zimbabwe-bans-export-of-raw-lithium/">government banned exports of raw lithium</a> last week in an effort to value-add Zimbabwe’s minerals and support local production and employment creation.

The ban was effected through Statutory Instrument (SI) 213 of 2022 titled Base Mineral Export Control (Unbeneficiated Lithium Bearing Ores) Order, 2022.
Lithium is becoming increasingly important as the world shifts towards clean energy systems.
Zimbabwe has abundant deposits of lithium and, with rising global demand and firmer prices, it has become an attractive destination for investment in this resource.

Beitbridge Border Post Officials Intercept Bernard Mnangagwa's Trucks Loaded With Lithium Ore

More than 5 000 artisanal miners who had descended on Sandawana Mine in Mberengwa in search of lithium have been dispersed, an official has said.
The artisanal miners and dealers had descended on the defunct emerald mine in search of the newly-discovered lithium.
Midlands Provincial Affairs and Devolution Minister Larry Mavima said some “unscrupulous” businesspeople were buying the lithium from the illegal miners before exporting the mineral. Said Mavima:
<blockquote>
We were informed that there was a lithium rush in Mberengwa and that’s why we decided to come down to have first-hand information on the goings on.
We have since stopped all the operations to allow for formal operations.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe Miners Federation (ZMF) president, Henrietta Rushwaya, said artisanal miners should benefit from the lithium. She said:
<blockquote>
We as ZMF are coming up with plans to make sure that artisanal miners benefit from lithium mining at the same time make sure that Government is benefiting from this lithium mining.
</blockquote>
Meanwhile, Kuvimba Mining House will be conducting exploration works at Sandawana Mine after it obtained a mining tribute for the mine. | <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/police-stop-illegal-lithium-mining/">The Herald</a>
