“Don't ignore the small-scale miners, even if they are under the guardianship of STAMICO. You have your role to play," Mahimbali emphasized.
Mahimbali's directive underscores the Ministry's commitment to supporting small-scale miners and ensuring that their disputes are resolved swiftly to promote a more efficient and equitable mining sector
