Lonely Mine

Eastern Africa

Lonely Mine is a village in Matabeleland North, Zimbabwe, about 84 kilometres north-east of Bulawayo and just north of Inyati. It was established in 1906, when gold was discovered in the area. Gold, nickel and tungsten are still mined in the area today, so the village has kept the mining economy from which it began for more than a century. Its location north of Inyati places it in the same gold bearing district as that older mission village, in the countryside north-east of the second city.
