Zimbabwe state miner says lithium assets attract investors

Zimbabwe’s state-owned miner Kuvimba Resources said its lithium assets are attracting potential investors from both China and other countries. Kuvimba has identified a lithium ore resource of 38 million tons at Sandawana, the site of a mothballed emerald mine formerly run by Rio Tinto. That’s sparked investor interest, acting Chief Executive Officer Trevor Barnard said in an interview from his office in the capital, Harare.
