Zimbabwe may sell 40% stake in a key gold mine to raise capital
Zimbabwe’s largest gold producer is negotiating with potential partners to boost production at its Shamva mine.
South Africa’s Northam Platinum (NHMJ.J: Quote) said on Wednesday it would sell part of the mineral rights for its Booysendal property to Aquarius Platinum (AQP.L: Quote) for 1.2 billion rand ($180.6 million).
Northam said Aquarius would buy the mineral rights attached to the southern part of Booysendal, which is adjacent to Aquarius’ own Everest mine.
