It is understood that the raw mineral was extracted from places near Sandawana in Mberengwa, and transported to Bulawayo, where it was kept near Khami Cafe close to Bulawayo’s Vehicle Inspection Department. The mineral was reportedly stored there to facilitate smuggling. This comes after the government banned exports of raw lithium last week in an effort to value-add Zimbabwe’s minerals and support local production and employment creation.

Lithium is becoming increasingly important as the world shifts towards clean energy systems. Zimbabwe has abundant deposits of lithium and, with rising global demand and firmer prices, it has become an attractive destination for investment in this resource. *More Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
