Jasra Mines is actively pursuing a Small-Scale Exploration License (ID: 37662-HQ-SEL) and covers an extensive area of 946.44 hectares (2338.70 acres)
Our exploration efforts are focused on a diverse range of valuable commodities. These include precious and semi- precious gemstones such as amethyst, diamond, emerald, sigillate, and tourmaline. We are also targeting key industrial and base metals like cobalt, copper, iron ore, lead, manganese, nickel, and zinc, which are essential for various manufacturing and technological applications. In addition, our portfolio includes gold and silver, known for their investment appeal and industrial uses. The inclusion of malachite, a notable copper ore, and mineral sands, which contain heavy minerals such as zircon and titanium, further exemplifies our comprehensive approach to resource exploration.
Our goal is to uncover and develop these resources efficiently, contributing to both local economies and the broader mining sector. The diverse range of commodities in our exploration agenda highlights our strategic approach to maximizing resource potential and ensuring a robust, versatile mining operation.
Jasra Mines is committed to adhering to the highest standards of environmental stewardship and sustainability in all our activities. We believe in the responsible development of mineral resources to benefit communities while preserving the ecological balance. Our ongoing efforts and future aspirations are geared towards achieving significant breakthroughs in mineral discovery and extraction, positioning Jasra Mines as a leading player in the industry.
Research by the Overseas Development Institute on the taxes and fees in the Zambian mining sector during privatisation in the late 1990s and the subsequent boom in copper prices reviewed the taxes and fees for mining and compared it internationally for royalties and corporate income tax in other major mining countries. There were significant differences between countries in how these taxes are calculated and as a result, a comparison of 'headline rates' on their own provide limited insight into how would-be investors perceive the mining sector.
