Tanzania Geological Society president Prof Elisante Mshiu told over 4,000 scientists in Mbeya that geologists are pushing small-scale mining forward while helping hunt for oil and gas deposits across the country. The annual meeting pulled researchers from government offices, universities, and institutes to talk about sector challenges like slow processing of resources and delays in getting the professional board fully registered.
Assistant Regional Administrative Secretary Anna Mwambene said better geological studies would help small-scale miners dodge risks, boost output, and find fresh mining zones. Mbeya sits as the second-biggest gold producer right now, and officials think proper research recommendations from the conference could push the region to the top spot.
