The government decriminalized small scale mining in late 2013, a shift that sparked some efforts to formalize artisanal mining. That small scale gold miners have boosted their production to surpass that of large mining operations is astonishing, given that most small miners use menial, labor intensive methods and tools including picks, shovels, buckets and wheelbarrows, Chinonzwa says.

The artisanal small scale gold mining (ASGM) sector exposes miners to toxic mercury when they use the chemical to extract gold from ore. However, with the right policies and market incentives, ASGM presents an opportunity to fight mercury use and contamination, protecting miners' health and the environment at the same time. The Global Environment Facility (GEF) is looking to do just that
