\nAfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> KYERWA District Commissioner (DC) Mr Rashid Mwaimu on Friday led hundreds of jubilant people, including small-scale miners, to witness the reopening of the Nyaruzumbura tin mineral auctioning centre.<\/p>\n

The centre was closed six months ago due to lack of a reliable market.<\/p>\n

Mr Mwaimu commended the State Mining Corporation (STAMICO) for reopening the centre.<\/p>\n

He noted that after closure of the tin market in March this year, many businesses collapsed, affecting people\u2019s livelihood while the government lost revenue.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a golden opportunity that people should exploit to increase their income. The fifth phase government under President John Magufuli is determined to ensure that small-scale miners engaged in tin mining enjoy their sweat by getting attractive prices,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He assured small-scale miners that some of the problems facing them would be solved, including installation of reliable electricity and fixing blasting materials at the camp.<\/p>\n

However, he strongly warned people to avoid smuggling of the natural resources, saying that stern measures would be taken against the culprits.<\/p>\n

STAMICO Acting Managing Director (MD), Dr Venance Mwasse disclosed that the market was sustainable, adding that the indicative price was fixed at 8,000\/- per kilogramme of tin while small-scale miners would be paid promptly because funds were available.<\/p>\n

He informed the district that about 20 tonnes of tin worth over 300m\/- were stored in the mineral government warehouse and that STAMICO had already cleared payments to the small-scale miners.<\/p>\n

The STAMICO management said it would facilitate, promote, and co-ordinate the functions of small-scale miners.<\/p>\n

Chairman of Nyaruzumbura Small-scale Miners Association (NSCMA), Mr Oswald Jenerali, said that about 1,500 small-scale miners engage in tin mining and thanked the government for reopening the market.<\/p>\n

Minerals Minister Dotto Biteko visited Nyaruzumbura tin auctioning centre last month and assured the small-scale miners that a reliable market would start operations soon.<\/p>\n

Under Section 123 of the Mining Act (Revised Edition 2018) a small-scale miner is allowed to store the tin mineral for only five days, after which he\/she should surrender it to the government mineral warehouse for safe keep-<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
