释义 |
The Lupa Gold Field is an area of about {{convert|2,600|km2}} in south west Tanzania, north of Mbeya, that is known for its gold deposits.[1] European mining is believed to have started after alluvial gold was found in water drawn from the Lupa River, near Lake Rukwa.[2] Lode mining began in 1934 at Ntumbi and in 1939 at New Saza.[1] A number of new mines have opened in the field in recent years including New Luika Gold Mine, the principal mine of Shanta Gold.[3] References1. ^1 Lupa Gold Field seabgems.com, 2013.
