President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe, below, said he plans to take control of the nationâs diamond mines in response to allegations of smuggling and a diamond rush in the eastern district of Marange. Zimbabwe has two diamond mines, one known as Murowa, owned by Rio Tinto and RioZim, and the other as River Ranch, which is held by private investors. âOnly government will mine diamonds,â Mr. Mugabe said in a televised interview on Tuesday. It is unclear whether Mr. Mugabeâs pronouncement will be made law, said David Murangari, chief executive of the Chamber of Mines, a business association that represents most mining companies in the country. Andrew Cranswick, chief executive of African Consolidated Resources, criticized the measure. âIf the state takeover of diamond mines is passed into law, it will destroy diamond exploration in this country,â he said.
