Chinamasa hits out at mines for not declaring production figures

Government has alleged that for many years, the mining industry had been siphoning platinum, rare earths, palladium, diamonds, rhodium, cobalt and gold and other minerals.

However, an official at the Chamber of Mines who declined identification said the mining industry was submitting monthly production statistics to government.

“This is what the law requires and the mining industry has been doing that. In the case of the documents that were required by the Norwegian experts, we submitted them three times, twice to government and once to the experts.”- The Source
