Zimbabwe central banker stockpiles gold to bolster ZiG currency
The ZiG - short for Zimbabwe gold — is the nation’s sixth attempt at having a functioning local currency in the last 15 years.
Canadian marine diamond miner Afri-Can Diamonds, which is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, is examining a potential listing on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE).
Afri-Can would launch a two-week sampling study on November 25 at its 800-square-kilometer concession nearby the Atlantic One Mining site, which is owned by Namdeb and the Government of Namibia.
Company CEO Pierre Leveille said that the sampling survey would allow Afri-Can to formally declare an official resource. After that, the company would start trial mining on a 10-square-kilometer area.
Afri-Can has scheduled the potential JSE listing for 1H 2013.
