NUST just applied to mine gold on its own campus in Bulawayo after illegal panners kept tearing up the grounds and spreading into nearby neighborhoods like Killarney. The university wants a special research mining permit from the city council and the Ministry of Mines so the School of Mines can run controlled extraction operations for teaching students and testing new tech.
The experimental setup supposedly fits Education 5.0 goals about blending academics with real-world industry practice. Cops had to raid the campus earlier after dozens of illegal miners set up shop in pits across university property, and six guys caught panning got six months in jail.
