A Zambian delegation led by High Commissioner Matthews Jerre has expressed admiration for the structure and regulation of Tanzania's mining sector. Following a detailed presentation, Ambassador Jerre commended the operational framework connecting small-scale and large-scale mining activities through a network of trading centers.

Officials from Zambia's state-owned ZCCM-IH, Tisa Chama and Kennedy Mwandama, praised the robust systems implemented by the Tanzanian government. They highlighted the effective use of technology in mineral markets and the inclusion of small-scale miners in formal exploration and processing activities as significant developmental achievements.

An Assistant Commissioner of Minerals, Archard Kalugendo, informed the delegation that formalizing small-scale miners was a strategic decision, given their substantial contribution of approximately forty percent to the sector's revenue. He noted that major reforms began with amendments to the Mining Act, and that the entire mining sector contributed 10.1 percent to the national GDP in 2024.
