CIIT reports progress on Zimbabwe gold/chrome MOU; plans local chromium supply chain with 10,000 t/mo target
AI Summary
Tianci International (CIIT) says it and Greypole Mining have advanced geological sampling and feasibility work under their April MOU to evaluate a ~500-hectare gold target in Gwanda (42 ha priority) and a ~1,500-hectare chromium target in Zvishavane (core ~420 ha), while also progressing mining-claims compliance reviews. The partners are simultaneously building a localized chromium sourcing, warehousing and beneficiation network (first phase ~12,000 sq.m. warehouse, 360-ha procurement radius) aimed at supporting CIIT's trading volumes with a targeted ~10,000 tonnes/month supply capacity, though no reserves or commercial production have been announced.
