0Magreth NunuheWindhoek – Three Namibian old mines will be brought back into production this year. Notable is the reopening of AfriTin’s Uis Tin Mine and North River Resources’ Namib Lead and Zinc Mine in the western part of Namibia in the Erongo Region. The reopening of the three mines has led to the creation of 720 jobs, according to Malango. Malango further emphasised the importance of attracting investment into exploration as this will increase the likelihood of new discoveries and the development of new mines. The Namibia Mining Expo and Conference will feature an exhibition by mining companies, service providers, suppliers as well as government organisations and other stakeholders.
