Tanzania: Govt. to revoke gold mining investor's licence to protect local artisanal miners from displacement

"Marching Orders for Meat Factory, Mining Investors"

President John Magufuli has directed...authorities to revoke licences issued to investors for...mining in Shinyanga [r]egion...Dr Magufuli assured small miners in Mwakitoria area in the region that no investor will remove them from the land on which they discovered and started mining gold in small-scale. He explained that he had already issued directives to respective authorities to revoke for good the licence of an investor in the mineral sector who bought the land and issued a10-day ultimatum for the small miners and their families to move out. "Some people discovered gold in their areas. They mined around the area for more than 10 years and then someone who has money comes and buys the land plus issuing a 10-day ultimatum to the more than 15,000 people in those areas to leave," he said, adding in the region's local dialect..."I say no to this during my presidency". "I have already issued directives, the small-miners in Mwakitoria will continue mining their land and the investor's licence should be revoked forever," he stressed.
