Zimbabwe has paid $ 5.4 million for the Russian diamond company DTZ-OZGEO, acting in the African country to obtain its concession area in Chimanimani (Chimanimani).
Allegedly, DTZ-OZGEO did not mind that Zimbabwe has taken steps to consolidate operations in Marange and Chimanimani last year, in contrast to the Chinese firms and companies Mbada, who went to court to challenge this decision.
Daily News reported that in Zimbabwe Consolidated Diamond Company (ZCDC) the government intends to "do better" after the settlement of the issues with the Russian side and the abolition of legal action by OFECC, which owns Chinese Anjin and Jinan.
In February Chidakva Walter (Walter Chidhakwa), Zimbabwe's minister of mining, told Rough & Polished, that Harare has begun negotiations with the DTZ-OZGEO takeover.
"I have to say that relations between Russia and Zimbabwe have a very long-term nature. I told them that I was impressed by the fact that, when we take national decisions, Russians we do not oppose it. They said that they will take this decision, but asked to consider what we have invited them, and so we are again conducting final work on an agreement with the Russians, which we will take their equipment and to pay them gradually over a period of time ", - he said.
Meanwhile, the Daily News reports that ZCDC received a loan in the amount of $ 8 million from the central bank of the country, and now intends to increase production beyond the current 200,000 carats per month.
