Tanzania launched a new gold refinery as its central bank plans to start buying the metal to diversify its reserves.
The Mwanza Precious Metal Refinery Ltd. is able to process 480 kilogrammes of gold per day, and plans to double the capacity in a few months, Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan said in a televised speech on Sunday. The nationâs State Mining Corporation has a 25% stake in the project, while Dubai-based Rozella General Trading LLC and Singaporeâs ACME Consultant Engineers PTE Ltd. own the rest.
