New mining company enters the ruby business

A unit dedicated to ruby extraction should start operating this year in the district of Montepuez, Cabo Delgado province, which will contribute to the increase in production and revenue from the exportation of this resource.

The company, operated by Moza Minerais, already has the equipment installed, and production trials are currently underway.

Castro Elias, executive secretary of the Kimberley Process Management Unit of the Ministry of Mineral Resources and Energy, assured quoted by "Notícias" that the production should start this year.

The source also said that, similarly to what has been happening with gold production, ruby extraction has been growing in Mozambique.
