President Emmarson Mnangwa's State of the Nation Address (SONA) highlighted the importance of the mining sector in propelling Zimbabwe's socioeconomic development and growth.
The President noted the country's vast lithium resources and the potential of this sector to contribute to the national vision of a US$12 billion mining economy by the end of this year.
He believes that the mine will create jobs, boost the local economy, and generate much-needed foreign currency. "The mine is expected to provide impetus to lithium production and significantly contribute to the national vision of a US$12 billion mining economy by the end of this year," said Zhou.
