MINING
A coal fired power station would benefit the whole country , however in its own backyard KCM is very much more than just a large employer and consumer of goods and services . It supports no fewer than two fully equipped hospitals , eight township clinics and eight mine clinics reaching out to over 63,000 people . That ’ s in addition to the education system it runs ; primary and secondary schools at both Chililabombwe and Chingola , between them serving 2,200 pupils .
Steven Din was very proud of KCM ’ s community work . “ We have upgraded the secondary schools to A-level , because the Zambian education system normally relies on universities to deal with that level of preparation in a foundation course . We wanted to give our students the
Konkola ’ s concentrator . In 2013 KCM started exploration in Sinazongwe , near the Zimbabwe boarder
