Mashava, originally known as Mashaba, is a mining village in Masvingo Province, Zimbabwe. It is one of the many mining settlements in the country, and the resources taken from its mines form a part of the Zimbabwean economy. The place was renamed from Mashaba to its present spelling over time, and its identity rests on mining like that of many other small settlements across the country, where a mine first drew workers and services together and a village then grew around them.
