In the Mid-term Monetary Policy Statement (MPS) presented this Thursday, RBZ governor, John Mangudya said: ---------- Latest itel A06 on Pindula: 32GB storage, 4GB RAM $69 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 ---------- > Gold deliveries to Fidelity Gold Refinery (Private) Limited (FGR) for the period 1 January 2022 to 30 June 2022 were 15,972.52 kgs, compared to 9,954.67 kgs delivered during the same period in 2021.

The central bank projects that the delivery of the targeted 35 000 tonnes by end of the year 2022 is within reach. Meanwhile, the apex bank believes it is important to maintain the incentives for deliveries and complement them with increased monitoring of gold producers to reduce leakages into the parallel market. Mangudya says this will ensure that the set target is achieved. The Centre for Natural Resource Governance (CNRG) last month claimed that Zimbabwe is losing at least three tonnes of gold valued at US$157 million monthly through illicit financial flows. *Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
