The Mineral Industry of Zimbabwe in 2016 2016 Minerals Yearbook ZIMBABWE [ADVANCE RELEASE] U.S. Department of the Interior February 2020 U.S. Geological Survey The Mineral Industry of Zimbabwe By James J. Barry Zimbabwe’s real gross domestic product (GDP) increased Production by 2.3% in 2016 compared with a 0.6% rate of growth in 2015. The real GDP at market prices was about $14.2 billion in 2016. In 2016, production for a number of mineral commodities Zimbabwe’s mineral output included an estimated 7.8% of the increased owing largely to higher global prices, including world’s platinum production, an estimated 5.7% of the world’s production of nitrogen, which increased by 167%; PGMs, 21%; palladium output, and about 1.7% of the world’s diamond cement and cobalt, 15% each; gold and silver, 14% each; copper, production (by weight). The country was the world’s third- 11%; and nickel in concentrate, 10%. Production decreased for ranked producer of platinum, fifth-ranked producer of palladium, the following mineral commodities: coal (bituminous), by 62%; and eighth-ranked producer of diamond. Zimbabwe had the coke, 50%; diamond (gem and industrial), 40%; ferrochromium, world’s third largest platinum-group-metal (PGM) reserves 32%; and graphite, 12%. Reported and estimated production for (Kimberley Process Certification Scheme, 2017; Zimbabwe the other commodities produced was relatively unchanged.

Minerals in the National Economy Structure of the Mineral Industry In 2016, the mining and quarrying sector accounted for about Domestic and international investment companies, domestic 9.9% of real GDP. Owing to higher prices, real GDP growth in and international mining companies, Government-owned the mining and quarrying sector was 8.2%, making the sector companies, mining cooperatives, multinational cement the second highest performing sector in the country. In 2015 companies, and small-scale miners conducted mineral operations (the most recent year for which data were available), minerals in Zimbabwe in 2016. With some negotiated exceptions, accounted for about 55% of the total value of exports; gold, ownership of mineral operations in Zimbabwe by domestic or PGMs, nickel, and diamond accounted for about 20%, 17%, international nonindigenous corporations or people was limited 8%, and 5%, respectively, of the total value of exports, and such by statute. State-owned companies involved in the mineral fuel products as diesel and gasoline were projected to account sector included MMCZ, Zimbabwe Mining Development Corp. for a combined 19% of total imports. For 2016, the formal (ZMDC) and its subsidiaries, and subsidiaries of the state-owned mining and quarrying sector accounted for an annual average Industrial Development Corp. of Zimbabwe, which produced of about 36,300 employees (Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe, 2015; industrial minerals and mineral-based commodities.

ZIMBABWE—2016 [ADVANCE RELEASE] 42.1 Copper and Nickel.—In 2016, Zimbabwe’s copper Marange diamond field. Diamond remained in the underlying production increased to 9,101 t of copper in concentrate from conglomerate rock; however, some companies mining in the 8,218 t in 2015 and nickel production to 17,743 t of nickel in field had shut down operations, as extraction of most of the concentrate from 16,109 t in 2015, which was an increase of diamond was no longer economically feasible. In October 2015, about 10%. Most of Zimbabwe’s copper and nickel production the Government declared all licenses in the Marange diamond came from the Trojan Mine which was owned by Bindura field expired. This was done as part of the Government’s efforts Nickel Corp. Ltd. (a subsidiary of ASA Resources Group PLC to consolidate the diamond-mining companies to increase of the United Kingdom). The Trojan Mine is located about 100 economies of scale and enable continued and more efficient kilometers (km) northeast of Bulawayo. Copper and nickel were production of diamond. The consolidation would merge all also produced as joint products of PGM production. Bindura diamond producers into the Zimbabwe Consolidated Diamond Nickel attributed the increased production to a new mining Corp. (ZCDC). In February 2016, through the ZCDC, the strategy at Trojan, which consisted of mining higher grade ore at Government took full control of all Marange diamond mining lesser amounts (table 1; ASA Resource Group PLC, 2017a, p. 6, operations. As a result, many of the mines were not producing 42–43; 2017b). throughout 2016 (table 1; Zimnisky, 2014; Mangudhla, 2015; Platinum-Group Metals.—In 2016, the increase in platinum- Marawanyika, 2016; Kazunga, 2017). group metal (PGM) production was in large part attributed to higher prices for the metals.

  • Mental Capacity Issues
    Mental Capacity Issues - Cayman Islands and British Virgin Islands Rowena Lawrence is Counsel and Tim Haynes is a Partner at Walkers (First appeared in the STEP Hong Kong Branch Newsletter (December 2015) Rowena Lawrence and Tim Haynes of Walkers provide an overview of the relevant regimes for mental capacity legislation in the BVI and the Cayman Islands. Hong Kong’s ageing population and the ongoing popularity of offshore structures will make the legislation in the major offshore jurisdictions concerning mental capacity issues increasingly relevant. Perhaps conscious of this, the legislators in both the British Virgin Islands (BVI) and the Cayman Islands have recently updated their rules in this area. The mental health legislation in both the Cayman Islands and the BVI has been reformed relatively recently to safeguard the rights of mentally incapacitated individuals. That legislation provides the courts with broad powers over the property and affairs of mental health patients. Given the constantly evolving jurisdictional arguments that arise in the courts of both Cayman and BVI, while it is unusual for individuals who are parties to Financial Services Division (Cayman) or Commercial Division (BVI) actions to be resident in those jurisdictions, there are circumstances in which it may be necessary to consider the application of laws of those jurisdictions when incapacitated persons are involved. An application to the offshore court may be made in a number of situations, for example where the individual concerned holds property (most obviously shares in an offshore company) in the offshore jurisdiction or where there is no obvious or effective order available in the jurisdiction in which the incapacitated individual resides.

  • UK Overseas Territories
    INFORMATION PAPER United Kingdom Overseas Territories - Toponymic Information United Kingdom Overseas Territories (UKOTs), also known as British Overseas Territories (BOTs), have constitutional and historical links with the United Kingdom, but do not form part of the United Kingdom itself. The Queen is the Head of State of all the UKOTs, and she is represented by a Governor or Commissioner (apart from the UK Sovereign Base Areas that are administered by MOD). Each Territory has its own Constitution, its own Government and its own local laws. The 14 territories are: Anguilla; Bermuda; British Antarctic Territory (BAT); British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT); British Virgin Islands; Cayman Islands; Falkland Islands; Gibraltar; Montserrat; Pitcairn, Henderson, Ducie and Oeno Islands; Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha; South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands; Turks and Caicos Islands; UK Sovereign Base Areas. PCGN recommend the term ‘British Overseas Territory Capital’ for the administrative centres of UKOTs. Production of mapping over the UKOTs does not take place systematically in the UK. Maps produced by the relevant territory, preferably by official bodies such as the local government or tourism authority, should be used for current geographical names. National government websites could also be used as an additional reference. Additionally, FCDO and MOD briefing maps may be used as a source for names in UKOTs. See the FCDO White Paper for more information about the UKOTs. ANGUILLA The territory, situated in the Caribbean, consists of the main island of Anguilla plus some smaller, mostly uninhabited islands. It is separated from the island of Saint Martin (split between Saint-Martin (France) and Sint Maarten (Netherlands)), 17km to the south, by the Anguilla Channel.
