President Emmerson Mnangagwa has said his government has crafted measures set to revive two asbestos mines in Zvishavane and Mashava respectively.

Mnangagwa has told ZBC News after touring King Mine in Mashava today asbestos mining will create employment and generate foreign currency for the country, thereby reviving the economy.

“By this time next year King Mine and Shabanie Asbestos Mines will be fully operational.

We know that the two mines will create employment and generate foreign currency for our country,” said Mnangagwa.

Mnangagwa faces stiff challenge from MDC Alliance Presidential candidate and former Vice President Joyce Teurai Ropa Mujuru- in his bid to retain the Presidency after assuming power in November last year.
