Moura Jorge also said that the launch of industrial mining would reduce the proliferation of illegal mining in the Great Lakes region.
Cited by radio station Rádio Moçambique, the administrator said that the launch of industrial gold mining in Lupulichi should have the added benefit of reducing contamination of the rivers that flow in Lake Nyassa by the mercury used to wash gold ore.
In 2012 49 kilograms of legal gold were mined in Niassa province and around 3,500 kilograms of red garnets.
