“I was very fortunate in being able to attend the Zimbabwe Mining Indaba 2009, held in Harare. Let me congratulate Utho Capital for the way they managed the gathering and the presentations, particularly in light of the last minute programme changes. I think that the objective of establishing a dialogue between the government and private (investment) sectors was achieved, and it will be interesting to track the momentum of these discussions as we move forward.’’

“The Zimbabwe Mining Indaba was a step in the right direction. Small-scale miners need to engage into partnerships with potential investors to secure the required capital for mining activities. This is the time to meet the investor and see possible areas of partnerships.’’
