Deputy Minister Polite Kambamura traveled to Pickstone Mine after a deadly accident killed four people. The tragedy happened when an old mine shaft fell down on Wednesday morning. About 40 people who mine without permission paid off a security guard to enter the restricted area. They used explosives on the pit walls and caused the structure to break apart. Five miners became trapped under the fallen rocks and debris.

Mine leader James Beare said his company plans to add security cameras and flying drones to watch the property better. The company also wants to give local people their mining claims to make their work legal. Kambamura spoke out against people who mine without permission and called their actions dangerous. He said the government will make tougher rules to stop these problems from happening again.

The minister stressed that mining companies need better security systems to protect their sites. He wants large mining operations to work with local communities through business partnerships. These joint deals can help both sides make money and reduce fights between groups. The accident has made people ask for better rules for small-scale miners and more safety training for workers.
