*Zimbabwe Asked To Pay $70M Debt Over Cancelled Nickel And Platinum Ventures* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?xz Zimbabwe has been asked to settle a $70 million debt after it lost an international arbitration case over cancelled nickel and platinum ventures between a private company and the state miner more than a decade ago. Companies linked to Amaplat Mauritius Ltd. made the proposal in a September 15 letter to Zimbabwe’s Secretary for Finance and Economic Development, George Guvamatanga. ---------- *HOT DEALS:* *itel A70 - (128GB, 3GB RAM) $89,* *itel A70 - (256GB, 4GB RAM) $99* *itel P40 (128GB, 4GB), (6000mAh) $99* *itel P40 (64GB, 4G), (6000mAh) $93* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

The case highlights challenges faced by Zimbabwe as it seeks to use its mineral wealth to kickstart a stagnant economy after years of erratic policy decisions and asset seizures sapped investor confidence. While investors from Russia, Cyprus and Nigeria have had plans to open platinum mines over the last three years, little progress has been made. The country also has large gold and chrome deposits. Under the proposal made by Amaplat, Zimbabwe would: > (1) Make a $15 million payment into an account at the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe. The bank would then permit these to be paid to the companies outside the country. > (2) Pay the euro equivalent of $30 million into an international bank account held by Amaplat. > (3) Pay the companies the equivalent of $25 million in the form of mining assets in the country. According to the letter, seen by Bloomberg, the payment plan has also been discussed in a meeting with Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe Governor John Mangudya the company principals. In response to queries, Guvamatanga said there are discussions taking place between Amaplats, the Ministry of Mines and ZMDC and nothing has been concluded yet. I can’t comment on the contents of the letter.” More: Bloomberg _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
