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.
Village Main Reef Gold Mining Co. said today that workers at its Buffelsfontein gold mine launched an unprotected strike yesterday night.
Company CEO Marius Saaiman said, “None of the category four to eight employees forming part of the [National Union of Mineworkers] bargaining unit reported for work.”
Village Main Reef officials plan to enter talks with workers with view to resolve the matter.
