ZRP names Kadoma Cop killers

National police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi has confirmed the names of those arrested in connection with the murder of Constable Wonder Hokoyo.

These are;

Tonderai Musasa (18),

Richwell Tshuma (26),

Bornlight Mukute (20),

Paul Demo (27),

Taurai Munetsi (31) and a minor aged 14.

Earlier, police had arrested Munyaradzi Chari (43), Lyton Panashe Tshuma (18) and Obvious Mawire (21), bringing the total number to nine.

The killing of Constable Hokoyo has caused outrage with the public accusing the government of not effectively dealing with the situation. Many are of the notion that the problem will not be solved anytime soon as powerful people are behind the machete gangs.

Junior Police officers seem to be aware of the gang’s connections and are afraid of taking action, echoing the sentiments by Minister Ziyambi that the gangs are arrested the next minute they are released. This makes the deployed officers vulnerable to attacks which may explain the hesitant behavior by Hokoyo and team.

Prospect optimistic of being the largest ultra-low iron petalite producer

African lithium company, Prospect Resources Ltd is pleased to announce that following on from the announcement released on the 4 November 2019, it’s ultra-low iron petalite product has progressed through the secondary qualification process with one of the world’s largest glass-ceramic manufacturers, based in Europe.

Prospect provided the manufacturer with a sample for larger-scale laboratory testing and analysis. The outcome from their analysis is that the ultra-low iron petalite surpasses the glass-ceramic market’s stringent ultra-low iron and alkali technical specifications.

To pass the final step in the product qualification process, Prospect’s ultra-low iron petalite product needs a full test in the production kiln. This is expected to be undertaken in 2020, once the pilot plant is constructed and larger volume of product is available.

Prospect is also in discussions with an additional industry leading glass ceramic producer based in Europe with a view to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”), where both parties seek to develop a commercial relationship.

Prospect is currently engaging with glass and ceramics customers across Europe, Asia and Africa who collectively, consume over 130,000 tpa equivalent of ultra-low iron petalite. Prospect’s ability to consistently produce approx. 100,000tpa of ultra-low iron petalite product, over its 15.5 year Life-of-Mine, is a key attraction from customers1

Prospect anticipates being one of only two mines in the world capable of producing ultra low iron petalite and we expect to be the largest player in this natural oligopoly – none of which are based in Australia. Demand for Prospect’s ultra low iron petalite is expected to be spread equally between Europe and Asia, with a considerable supply deficit for the foreseeable future.

Illegal miners drown running from Eureka gold mine guards

Two Guruve artisanal miners drowned in Dande River while running away from security guards chasing them at Eureka Gold Mine.

Mashonaland Central provincial police spokesperson Inspector Milton Mundembe confirmed the incident which claimed the lives of Learnmore Muroiwa and Moses Thomas.

“We urge our citizens to respect the rule of law and we discourage artisanal miners to go to other premises for mining,” he said.

“They should prospect their own mines and gain necessary paperwork from the ministry.

“As police, we will not tolerate cases of theft or violence by artisanal miners and we will make sure that the law has been applied successfully.”
