# President Cyril Ramaphosa has inaugurated the second-phase expansion of Vedanta Zinc International’s Gamsberg Mine in the Northern Cape. The project will double mining capacity from four to eight million tonnes annually, increasing zinc-in-concentrate production capacity to approximately 500-thousand tonnes a year. The expansion is expected to sustain between 800 and one-thousand jobs, with recruitment focused on the province. The government says partnerships between business, workers and communities are essential to promoting investment, skills development and inclusive economic growth in the region.
