"The geology of Zimbabwe is very richly endowed. Of the 40 known metals and minerals that it is home to – gold, platinum and chrome form the principal endowments. The country's gold reserves are among the largest in the African region while it hosts the second-largest platinum reserves in the world. Another segment that has caught the attention of miners in Zimbabwe is diamonds after the discovery of a number of significant kimberlites. For a country long saddled with severe economic problems, the mining industry underscores its importance by earning over 40% of the total export revenues for the nation. Like its African peers, Zimbabwe has not been able to derive the full benefits of its myriad resource base."
