GOVERNMENT has started training programmes for artisanal miners across the country, a development that is expected to increase adoption of safe mining methods.
The programme will run from February 5 to March 1, 2024.
The Ministry of Mines and Mining Development said the training programmes will be conducted in eight provinces.
“The awareness campaigns will cover issues to do with formalisation of mining operations, with focus on unregistered miners who are expected to formally register their mines,” said the ministry in a statement.
“In addition to capacitation for small-scale miners, very soon equipment will be availed through the Mining Industry Loan Fund in the various provincial mines workshops.”
