By Simbarashe Sithole ABOUT 40 illegal miners were yesterday trapped at Ran Mine in Bindura after a disused mine shaft collapsed. Six miners were retrieved and rushed to Bindura Hospital for treatment, according to Zimbabwe Miners Federation chief executive Wellington Takavarasha. Acting Mashonaland Central police spokesperson Assistant Inspector Fedelis Dhewu was not reachable for comment, but Information secretary Ndavaningi Mangwana confirmed the development. “A tragedy has occurred at Ran Mine in Bindura town late this afternoon. A deep disused mine trench has curved in, trapping several illegal gold miners. Exact number not yet established. So far six miners have been rescued. Details to follow, but numbers could be circa 30,” Mangwana tweeted. Freda Rebecca Mine sent a rescue team and equipment, including earthmovers, to lead the rescue efforts, Takavarasha said. “What I am told is there were 40 illegal miners who went underground and got trapped,” Takavarasha said, adding that the disaster was caused by negligence. “This (Ran Mine) is a disused mine and you know what the panners do, they hit the pillars, they don’t follow the tunnel, and they meander. Hitting the pillar weakens the mine and during times like this when it will be raining, the mine collapses. Because the pillars are collapsed, it makes even the rescue operations very risky.” He said the Mines ministry should ensure an end to illegal mining to save lives. “Most of them will not be wearing protective clothing. Even the six retrieved yesterday, they did not have helmets or safety shoes,” Takavarasha said. Cases of panners being trapped in disused mines panning for gold have been on the rise. Government this week gave up trying to retrieve six bodies of miners trapped in a mineshaft at Matshetshe Mine in Esigodini since November 10. Early this month, two bodies out of five artisanal miners who were trapped underground at Task Mine Syndicate, Chegutu, were retrieved 51 days after the collapse of a shaft. In February last year, 24 artisanal miners died in a disused Cricket Mine at Battlefields near Kwekwe when a dam wall collapsed and the shafts were flooded. Almost every week, a gold panner dies somewhere in the country.

By streaming service, video-on-demand, virtual theater or actual theater, a steady diet of films have been released under COVID-19 every week.

ALL is now in place for the staging of the 2020 edition of the Zimbabwe BMX national and inter-provincial championships set for Harare BMX Park on Saturday. by MUNYARADZI MADZOKERE The event will be used to select a team that will represent the country at the ICU BMX World Championships to be hosted by Netherlands in July next year. It will also bring the curtain down on a season that was largely interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. “It’s the biggest race in Zimbabwe that will include riders from Bulawayo. It’s an exciting time for us as Zimbabwe BMX,” national co-ordinator Ashley Gorre said. “It’s important because it is an event that will help in selecting the Zimbabwe team for next year’s World Championships. The kids are really working hard to qualify for the big race in the Netherlands. “Ever since BMX was allowed after the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions in August, the kids have been training to try to get their fitness levels up again for the first big race this year which is the national championships and they are excited,” she added. Apart from the ICU World Championships the local riders are hoping to take part at other top regional events in 2021. “Depending on the COVID-19 situation or other unforeseen circumstances next year we are looking at the big event Netherlands as well as the South Africa National age group series in April, June and September,” Gorre said. Competition for the national and inter-provincial championships will come in several categories from five-year-olds and under, up to the Under-13 as well as the open group. The BMX national championships will not be as big as the organisers want it to be because of the COVID-19 regulations that are currently in place. It has also suffered in terms of corporate support because of the current difficult economic environment. “We cannot make it very big because we have to adhere to the strict COVID-19 measures. We are looking at not more than 70 spectators mainly close relations to the riders. “In terms of sponsorship we have received support mainly from parents. But we have corporate support from our major sponsors namely TyreZim, Sable Chickens, Inscor, JoDan Electronics and The Pet Shop, among others,” she said. Other partners include FUCHS, ESPN, Grocery Guru, Simbisa Brands Ltd, Mtowe, The Nook and Nyinana Farm. lFollow Munyaradzi on Twitter @munyamadzokere
