Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe, a landlocked nation in Southern Africa, was historically one of Africa's strongest economies, anchored in mining, agronomy and tourism.  Emerging from recent political and economic turmoil, Zimbabwe is poised to rebuild on its historic strengths.

The country, which has a population of 12 million, benefits from a climate  ideal for growing maize, cotton, tobacco, wheat, coffee, sugarcane, peanuts.  Zimbabwe has a long history in mining and local expertise remains first rate.  Gold, platinum, coal, ferrochrome, copper, nickel, diamonds and tin are all found in the Archean Zimbabwe Craton.  Similar Archean Cratons exist in other major mineral producing nations such as Australia, Canada and Tanzania.

Now that Zimbabwe has adopted the SA Rand and US Dollar as official currencies, hyper inflation is under control and small business is beginning to flourish. Although Zimbabwe's infrastructure has suffered over the past 10 years, there exists a strong base which is already benefitting from continuous upgrading.

Geological potential, along with recent legislative changes that allow gold producer to sell their production on the open market, make Zimbabwe one of the great gold exploration and production opportunities in the world today.
