Chronicle Correspondent
Canadian owned mine, Duration Gold Zimbabwe’s bid to evade the indigenisation law has been exposed and it has emerged the mining company is transferring its assets to a separate company.
According to a letter addressed to some of Duration Gold employees by its director Mr Andrew Thompson, the company is in the process of separating operational project from services.
Sources within the company said workers were given forms to endorse the company name change and asset transfer.
