Our Vision

At Magaya Mining, we have an ambitious vision: to enable artisanal miners to lead socio-economic transformation in Zimbabwe. We recognise the vast potential of these miners and are committed to equipping them with the resources necessary to realise their complete capability.

Our vision is the formalisation of the Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM) sector, empowering artisans throughout Zimbabwe to be key contributors to positive transformation for both the nation and its citizens.

Come together with us to create an environment where economic success and ethical standards are intertwined.

How big is Artisanal Mining?

A report from Megatrends Africa predicts a substantial increase in participation within Zimbabwe’s artisanal mining sector, estimating the number of miners to be between 500,000 and 1.5 million. The fluctuations within this range can be attributed to several factors such as seasonal changes, economic challenges, and rising gold prices.

However, despite these significant figures, the informal and cyclical characteristics of the sector hinder its capacity to offer consistent income for all miners and contribute positively to the broader economy.

Magaya Mining recognises the critical need for job creation and stability in a country where available employment opportunities fall short of demand.

Our Mission

Our mission is clear: to revolutionise artisanal mining into a sustainable and empowering sector. We equip artisanal miners with the essential resources and support necessary for their success, ensuring that their achievements positively impact the country’s overall progress.

We are dedicated to enhancing the skills of artisanal miners. This involves offering training programs, improving access to financing, and creating an atmosphere that promotes entrepreneurship and collaborative initiatives.

Magaya Mining firmly believes that by adhering to this mission, artisanal mining will emerge as the strongest catalyst for positive transformation in Zimbabwe.
