AfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> TANZANIA Women Miners Association (Tawoma) is set to launch a database as it seeks to determine the actual mineral production and sales by its members and its contribution to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per annum.<\/p>\n

This has been unveiled by Tawoma Secretary General Salma Kundy at a press conference held at the weekend.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe move will enable us to know the amount of minerals produced by our members and the amount sold in domestic and international markets,\u201d said Ms Kundy.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Tawoma which serves as the heart of networking among women miners in the country has secured a license from the Tanzania Mining Commission to practice value addition to minerals especially gemstones, rocks and precious metals such as gold and silver before selling them abroad.<\/p>\n

Before authorisation, the association was exporting raw material minerals abroad, something that deprived them of earning sufficient incomes.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe practise mineral value addition such as lapidary and jewellery designing. Then, we sell products in domestic and international markets. The price ranges from 500,000\/-to 30m\/- per product,\u201d said Tawoma mineral value addition department secretary Mecktilder Mchomvu.<\/p>\n

For her part, Tawoma Chairlady Eunice Negele said in the next five years the country\u2019s mining sector would contribute sufficient revenue to the GDP following reforms in the mining sector.<\/p>\n

The country’s mining sector is expected to contribute 10 per cent to the GDP by 2025. Currently, the mining sector’s contribution to GDP is estimated at 4.8 per cent.<\/p>\n

The chairlady heaped praise on President John Magufuli for reforms in Tanzania\u2019s mining sector, including the construction of a 24-kilometre wall at Mirerani and the establishment of more than 20 minerals trading centres across the country to control smuggling of precious gems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
