Large gold producers delivered 11 159 kg, while small-scale producers delivered 18 470,61 kg. 

In a statement on Wednesday, Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) governor, Dr John Mangudya, commended Government for introducing the Gold Incentive Scheme, as it had a positive impact on gold deliveries to FGR. 

“The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe wishes to express its appreciation and gratitude to the country’s small and large gold producers for having delivered total of 29 629,61 kg of gold to Fidelity Gold Refinery (Private) Limited (FGR) in 2021, a 55,5 percent increase from the 19 052,65 kg delivered in 2020,” reads the statement. 

“It is projected that the quantum of the country’s gold exports in 2021 will increase beyond the 29 629,61 kg when the gold component in the Platinum Group Metals is eventually included in the tally of gold deliveries to FGR.”
