I don't know if gold is on embargo list from Zimbabwe: <<Zim govt may seize mining firms - Posted: 05/28/2002 08:00:00 AM \| © 1997-2001 HARARE -- Zimbabwe may pass laws to compel mining companies operating in the country to sell or hand over part of their assets to black Zimbabweans, the state- controlled Herald newspaper said, citing the country's mines minister. Bloomberg reports Anglo American Plc, Rio Tinto Group, Lonmin Plc and Impala Platinum Holdings Ltd. are among the mining companies that operate in Zimbabwe. ``We're not satisfied with the window dressing of corporate board rooms with indigenous people, said Edward Chindori-Chininga at a conference of the Zimbabwe Chamber of Mines, which represents mining companies, according to the newspaper. Zimbabwe has the world's second-biggest deposits of platinum and chrome after South Africa and is Africa's fourth-biggest gold producer. Over the last two years the government has been seizing white-owned land to redistribute to blacks disadvantaged during 90 years of white rule.
