This is a big question because everyone who is doing gold nowadays have to do the rituals to get the metal, but it defies science because when you do an assay report it will state that your place have 0.75g per tonne but once you do the spiritual you can get as much as a kg from a tonne, saka izvi zvinhu zvine chivanhu chakasimba ,in chegutu we hear they is a woman there who is helping the gold miners but her condition is you suck her breasts and the results are overwhelming but the repo effect is that at a certain time the pit will curve in and kill someone then the process starts again. Gold is spiritual for us blacks but for our white investors they put in a lot of millions and they achieve their desired targets

This is real chief I once encountered a similar case wr someone had a dream was forewarned and coached on what to.say to the snake he will encounter but being human as he was after retrieving +/-2kilos a huge snake appeared as he ran for dear life he dropped the loot and it was picked up by a small boy.

Isusu we were(and still) doing explorations mumakomo. One funny thing is when we were growing up taitombopinda muninga pasina chataisangana nacho but izvezvi when we are doing explorations togona kusangana nemapere kana nyoka but were just advised kuti tisadziuraye kana kudzinga mapere. Leave them in peace . I am Christian handiiti zvekukumbirira more so the problem with kwaNyashanu these days is most of the elders who knew about kukumbirira varidzi venzvimbo kwacho they are now Christian’s so totoshaya kuti unokumbirira uchitii…

I was relieved when one of our elders said wagara uri Nyashanu so there is nothing too spiritual that may deter you to explore or mine. Ndagara ndiri muridzi wenzvimbo

. So I think it depends nekuti ndirikupi…I can’t do the same in Dotito or Nyanga though. So my point is gold is spiritual reason being you move a tone of dirt to extract something precious which is the opposite with quarry or limestone

Even the prophets who are into mining are doing the rituals, they just sponsor the bira and they wont attend the ceremonies but in my view sponsoring those ceremonies you are also partaking in the rituals

Gold is very spiritual.. kune chinonzi chibhachi in mining… Kune vanhu vekutoti mukashanda navo hamubati kana cent, i have had such encounters

Minerals have always been spiritual. Was at Murowa Diamonds at some time. Kuchiitwa Bira ne the mines because mvura yanga isisaperi. Whites invest millions but chivanhu kana chapindira they take the traditional route

There is a very big misconception with rituals or traditional practices associated with mining which are regarded as kuromba…Im sure we are all zimbabweans and growing up there are things done which we still do not understand to this day in age, however those things are done anyways and they have no biblical meaning to them or rather a christian pass in their conduct.Kunorohwa makuva, chenura, nyaradzo, vamwe vanoperekwa, mwana anokweshwa nhova, kurapa buka nekuisa mwana nepamusoro pembariro dzepamukova etc…Hausi hurombwa uhu. Sometimes zvinhu kuti zvikufambire unonzwa kuti enda unotsika pachivanze chekumba kwenyu, meaning just go home…The so called rituals or mabira and the like that are attributed mukuromba can be fruitful or not

… Sometimes mines collapse pasina kana ritual, at times mines make money pasina ritual… Its all about what you as an individual believe when you go forth. Chero ukaita mukristu unogona kutova murombo well because as christians you lack nothing in christ saka thats another debate for another day.Chamunomboti kuromba chiii chaizvo? Ndikaenda kubira ndaromba? Tikabika doro remvura taromba here? Tikasuma varidzi venzvimbo taromba here? Hameno

I will comment on this from a Christian perspective . Wealth on its own is very spiritual. Chanetsa manje with our modern day Christian anoita zvinhu at average kkk not full throttle . Kana wafunga zvegold or making money in general kana uchinamata unotogara uchipisa . And then vaya vanoita zvemushonga zvinhu zvacho zviri organised that yu continues coming back to renew power. It’s never a once off deal. ZvemaAncestors I might not be very informed about it and I wouldnt want to call my forefathers demons but zvemari in general zvine maspirit behind. That’s why as Christians before going into a new market yu need to pray so you r dominant in that territory coz ukasvika imomo nyangwe wakarongeka sei asi mune madominant spirits unoshamisika business richitadza kufire .whatever yu do do it well

Tendai Shumba MhaziI will write in Shona so I can best express myself. Nyaya ye mining inotoda kukumbirira varidzi venzvimbo. Some go to the extent yekubika doro rekuzodira pa mine pacho kuti mukwanise kuchera nekuwana zvicherwa. Izvo zvekuyamwana mazamu zvave zvemushonga yakaipa.Pazvicherwa panosangana vanhu vakasiyana. Kune vanongo decider kuti ndave kuda kuita zve gold because ndine mari yekutenga equipment etc plus zviri kuunza mari. Kozoita vane mashavi avo echivanhu anosanganisira mashavi euvhimi etc, mashavi awa anotori pavari kuti avashavire gold vagare zvakanaka. Ava strictly follow zvarehwa nevashavi vavo saka munoona vanototenga zvechivanhu zvinoenderana nenzvimbo yacho yavari kunoshandira eg chambwa chavo, fodya etc voenda kunotaura nevaridzi venzvimbo kuti ndini nhingi ndauyawo munzvimbo menyu kuzochera zvicherwa. Vanenge vachitokumbirira kuti zvavafambira zviitike nekuti dzimwe nzvimbo dzamunosvika dzine mweyayakaipa inoda kusudurudzwa or varidzi venzvimbo vanodawo respect. Haungosvike pa yard pemunhu woita madiro ka, unototaura kuti ndiwe ani uye wavingei. Ava vanoita izvi hauvawani mu class yemashurugwi nekuti zve violence nekuurayana havaite izvozvo nekuti vanotevedzera magariro echivanhu chavanenge vave kuita panzvimbo iyoyo. Ndine hama yangu ari kuita mari kuma mines kwake simply by following mitemo yechivanhu zvisina mushonga mukati. Imi munogona kuenda kunotsvaga gold asi mugokundwa kuita mari neane mashavi ake anongomuudza kuti chera apa unoriwana gold. Imi muchingochera pese pese blindly. Munokundwa nekuti pane vane chipo chacho chinovaudza kuti apa pane gold saka chera ipapo. You are right when you say it’s spiritual even though most will deny that simple fact. I’ve seen it with my own two eyes and know what I’m talking about. Hazvina kuromba mukati, just simple chivanhu back to basics.
