RioZim has lost its operating license in Zimbabwe due to its inability to advance the development of a 2,800 megawatt coal-fired power plant. Bloomberg posted on X, highlighting the impact of this decision on the mining company. The Zimbabwean government had granted the license with the expectation that RioZim would proceed with the construction of the power plant, which was intended to boost the country's energy capacity. However, the failure to meet the development requirements led to the revocation of the license, affecting RioZim's operations in the region. This move underscores the government's commitment to ensuring that licensed projects contribute to the nation's energy infrastructure. The loss of the license is a significant setback for RioZim, which had been planning to expand its operations through the power plant project.
