Of the three gold refineries currently under construction, the first will start operations next February. Professor Simon Msanjila, Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Minerals, who went to inquire about the progress of work at the Mwanza and Geita refineries, said he was pleased that the country’s mining sector will finally be able to achieve the expected transformation. He said Mwanza Precious Metals Refinery Ltd, a joint venture of a State Mining Corporation (STAMICO), Dubai-based Rozella Genera Trading LLC and Singapore’s ACME Consultant Engineers PTE Ltd, will be one of the top gold refineries.
