Timothy Chanda's Company Details
Kagem Mining Ltd is based in Lufwanyama, Zambia, and believed to be the world's single largest producing emerald mine. Kagem is 75% owned by Gemfields, in a model partnership with the Zambian government. A world leading supplier of responsibly sourced coloured gemstones, Kagem aims to emulate the values of Gemfields and operate in a way that contributes positively to the national economy, while taking a leading role in modernising the coloured gemstone sector. We believe that coloured gemstones should be mined and marketed by championing three key values - legitimacy, transparency and integrity. More than being just a mining company, Kagem invests in preservation of environment, health, education and livelihood projects tailored to the needs of the community, with extensive consultation to build lasting, sustainable livelihoods for the community around Lufwanyama. In practice this means building and establishing high performing schools, a clinic, helping to set up farming associations and facilitating training, all with a view to benefiting the community in the short, medium and long term.
