Muriel

Eastern Africa

Muriel is a settlement in Mashonaland West province, Zimbabwe. It is located in the Zvimba District, near Mutorashanga. The settlement is known for the Muriel Mine, a gold mine in the district, which accounts for the name and for the existence of the community. Mutorashanga, the nearby larger centre, lies along the Great Dyke, and the article records little else about the community itself, which is a small place identified mainly through its mine. The article is short, and no population, founding date or other detail is given for the settlement, so only its location and its mining association are established here.
