LocationKassanda in located in Mubende District, approximately {{convert|58|km|0}} east of Mubende, the location of the district headquarters.[1] This is about {{convert|110|km|0}} west of Kampala, the capital and largest city in Uganda.[2] The coordinates of the Kassanda are 0°32'48.0"N, 31°49'11.0"E (Latitude:0.546670; Longitude:31.819719).[3] OverviewPrior to 2013, the town was a quiet rural settlement. Then someone discovered a gold nugget on one of the hills in town. While gold has been known to exist in the area, this new find led to an influx of "prospectors" from outside the area. They came from as far away as Rwanda and DR Congo. Many were previously unemployed or underemployed youth from the streets of Kampala. This has led to an impromptu "gold rush", with miners, washers, refiners, middlemen, buyers and exporters. In 2014, it was reported that five out of fifty mines (10 percent) were producing gold.[4] Points of interestThe Myanzi–Kassanda–Bukuya–Kiboga Road passes through the middle of town.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://distancecalculator.globefeed.com/Uganda_Distance_Result.asp?fromplace=Mubende%20Town%20Council%20Headquarters%2C%20Kampala%2C%20Mubende%2C%20Central%20Region%2C%20Uganda&toplace=Kasanda%2C%20Central%20Region%2C%20Uganda%2C&dt1=ChIJT_J44vImYxcRtvZvtUTQ2QQ&dt2=ChIJYYfSrmPXfBcRZHX4ut0en3I|title=Distance between Mubende Town Council Headquarters, Kampala, Mubende, Central Region, Uganda and Kassanda, Central Region, Uganda|last= GFC |publisher=Globefeed.com (GFC)|accessdate=19 May 2016|date=19 May 2016}} 2. ^{{cite web|accessdate=19 May 2016 |last=GFC | url=http://distancecalculator.globefeed.com/Uganda_Distance_Result.asp?fromplace=Uganda%20Post%20Office%2C%20Kampala%20Road%2C%20Kampala%2C%20Central%20Region%2C%20Uganda&toplace=Kasanda%2C%20Central%20Region%2C%20Uganda%2C&dt1=ChIJQ6vCjIC8fRcRO0xjOZ4-3Qc&dt2=ChIJYYfSrmPXfBcRZHX4ut0en3I |title=Distance between Uganda Post Office, Kampala Road, Kampala, Central Region, Uganda and Kassanda, Central Region, Uganda|publisher=Globefeed.com (GFC)|date=19 May 2016}} 3. ^{{google maps |title=Location of Kassanda, Mubende District, Central Region, Uganda|url=https://www.google.com/maps/place/0%C2%B032'48.0%22N+31%C2%B049'11.0%22E/@0.5466754,31.8175357,450m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d0.54667!4d31.819719|accessdate=19 May 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web| location=Kampala| url=http://www.oilinuganda.org/features/land/artisinal-miners-flood-mubende.html|title=Artisanal miners flood Mubende |first=Chris |accessdate=19 May 2016| date=24 April 2014 | publisher=Oil In Uganda | last=Musiime}} 5. ^{{google maps|accessdate=19 May 2016|title=Location of Myanzi–Kassanda–Bukuya–Kiboga Road, in Kassanda Town, Mubende District, Uganda| url=https://www.google.com/maps/place/0%C2%B032'48.0%22N+31%C2%B049'12.0%22E/@0.5466838,31.8184683,17.5z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d0.54668!4d31.820006}} External links
