Mugabe impatient over pace of mining reform

Zimbabwe’s mining industry needs to be “reorganised” so that it contributes more towards the African country’s economy, President Robert Mugabe said on Tuesday. Although he did not give details on what form the transformation would take, his government has, in recent years, pressured mining firms to transfer majority stakes to black ownership under a 2008 law and to cede some claims.
