In an interview with Today News, Young Miner's Association Chief Executive Officer Payne Farai Kupfuwa confirmed the development. The young miner's field day is premised on educating and inspiring young people to set up more formalized mining enterprises. Formalization is achieved by regularizing mining operations through the Ministry of Mines and Mining Development," he said. The event will be graced by Matabeland South Resident Minister Hon. Evelyne Ndlovu, Provincial Mining Director, EMA, NASSA and mining equipment suppliers with the mining foil.
Companies in the mining value chain are scheduled to come and exhibit their products and services. Mining field days have so far become the gist of progressive and strategic engagements.
