Zimbabwe is planning to decriminalise gold-panning to boost gold production and get into the top five producers of the golden metal in three years. Finance Minister Patrick Chinamasa today said there are over 20 000 gold panners whose output could significantly increase gold production if it is properly accounted for. Zimbabwe produced 14 tonnes of gold last year and could reach 17 tonnes this year. Top producers at the moment are South Africa, Ghana, Mali, Tanzania and Guinea.
