Chinese Company to Build Grinding-Ball Factory at Buzwagi SEZ

China's Oriental Casting and Forging Ltd plans to establish a factory for steel grinding balls and other mining consumables at the Buzwagi Special Economic Zone in Kahama, Shinyanga, following a meeting between Minister of Minerals Anthony Mavunde and the company's managing director Hou Songcun. The project is part of Tanzania's push to manufacture mining consumables locally, cut import dependence and position itself as a regional supply hub, though no investment value or job figures have been disclosed.
