Govt approves funding for Phikwe mine museum

The study will determine the viability of establishing the museum using the decommissioned BCL Open Pit and No 1 Shaft.

It will look at the possibility of establishing tourism enterprises and education facilities for science and environmental research using the same BCL facilities. Selebi-Phikwe mayor Tebogo Matlhogonolo said during a full council meeting last week that the project is a joint collaboration between BCL, Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST) and SPEDU.
