Project Pitch
Artisanal Mining and Infrastructure Development Project
Lwenshi Limited is expanding its operations into artisanal mining with a focus on manganese extraction in Mansa. The company’s approach integrates community-based employment, sustainable infrastructure development, and green economy principles.
The project involves upgrading the tailings and decant facilities, desilting runoff dams, improving access roads, and operationalizing artisanal mining zones.
Lwenshi engages micro-SMEs such as self-employed artisans, mechanics, bricklayers, and female-led catering services—strengthening local value chains and promoting inclusive economic participation.
With its strong compliance record and demonstrated financial growth through contracts with Munali Nickel Mine, U.S. Embassy projects, and the ADB Sanitation Project, Lwenshi seeks funding to expand operations, acquire specialized equipment (lowbeds, graders, and water bowsers), and scale sustainable artisanal mining.
