Mining Operations & Pillars
Integrated open-pit and underground mineral extraction, diamond core geological exploration, CIL/CIP metallurgical processing, heavy site civil works, and Zero-Harm SHEQ governance.
PILLAR 01
HIGH-YIELD GOLD, CHROME, LITHIUM & BASE METAL EXTRACTION
Operation 01: Open-Pit & Underground Mining
As the flagship operational pillar of Knowledge Group of Companies, our Mining Division executes disciplined open-cast bench mining and mechanized underground extraction across Zimbabwe's premier greenstone belts and the Great Dyke. We combine modern drill-and-blast engineering with strict grade control to maximize ore recovery safely.
Operational Scope:
PILLAR 02
DIAMOND CORE DRILLING, GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS & ASSAYING
Operation 02: Geological Exploration & Resource Evaluation
Unlocking mineral wealth starts with scientific precision. Our exploration geologists and drilling crews deploy diamond core rigs, reverse-circulation (RC) drilling, induced polarization (IP) geophysics, and fire-assay geochemical sampling to delineate bankable mineral reserves across Zimbabwe.
Operational Scope:
PILLAR 03
MULTI-STAGE CRUSHING, BALL MILLING, CIL/CIP LEACHING & SMELTING
Operation 03: Mineral Processing & Metallurgical Plants
Maximizing metallurgical recovery from run-of-mine (ROM) ore. Knowledge Group designs, builds, and operates modern mineral beneficiation circuits including jaw and cone crushing, closed-circuit ball milling, gravity concentration, Carbon-in-Leach (CIL) / Carbon-in-Pulp (CIP) gold recovery, and dense media separation (DMS).
Operational Scope:
PILLAR 04
BULK EXCAVATION, PLANT FOUNDATIONS, FUEL DEPOTS & HAUL ROADS
Operation 04: Heavy Earthmoving & Mine Site Infrastructure
Reliable mining requires rugged civil and energy infrastructure. Our engineering crews construct reinforced concrete plant foundations, bulk diesel fuel storage depots with fire-safety bunding, haulage road networks, and lined Tailings Storage Facilities (TSF) across remote Zimbabwean mine sites.
Operational Scope:
PILLAR 05
ZERO-HARM SAFETY PROTOCOLS, EMA COMPLIANCE & LAND REHABILITATION
Operation 05: Sustainable Mining, SHEQ & Community ESG
Knowledge Group of Companies is committed to responsible resource stewardship. Every mining concession and processing plant operates under strict Safety, Health, Environment & Quality (SHEQ) standards, full Environmental Management Agency (EMA) compliance, closed-loop water recycling, and active rural community empowerment.
