Rio Tinto Zimbabwe begins diamond exports in days
Global miner Rio
Tinto’s Zimbabwe unit expects to resume diamond exports in a few days
after a government ban on sales in May, the company’s managing director
said on Wednesday.
Zimbabwe banned all diamond exports until stones
from the government’s controversial Marange fields, where it operates
two joint venture mines, were certified by industry regulators. “We
have been in communication with the government and we expect to resume
(exports) in a few days,” Neils Kristensen told Reuters.
