Mhangura–Sanyati Copper Project
200,000ha on the Magondi Belt — home to Mhangura, Zimbabwe's all-time leading copper producer, with a pre-mining orebody of ~60Mt at 1.2% Cu and 20 g/t Ag.

Reserved Area RA MSW 004 (Mhangura) was granted to MPC for the exploration and mining of copper and other metals such as gold and zinc. The reserved area is situated approximately 121km to the north-west of Harare and a few kilometres west of Chinhoyi. The total RA is 324,600 hectares; 125,000 hectares have been committed to other parties, leaving 200,000 hectares available for exploration partnerships.
The RA occupies the highly prospective Magondi Belt, a Paleo-Proterozoic terrain flanking the Zimbabwe Craton to the west. The belt is renowned for its sedimentary strata-bound copper mineralisation. Notable — though currently inactive — deposits include Mhangura, Alaska, Avondale and Shackelton. The Mhangura Copper Mine is the country's all-time leading copper producer, with an original pre-mining orebody totalling approximately 60 million tonnes at 1.2% Cu and 20 g/t Ag. Other minerals such as gold, wolframite, beryl and manganese also exist in the area.
