Zambia Police Pledge Support to First Quantum Minerals in Kalumbila
The North-Western Division of the Zambia Police has pledged continued support for First Quantum Minerals Limited (FQML) and its mining investments.
This commitment was made during a courtesy visit to FQML’s operations in Kalumbila at the FQM Trident Limited site, which includes the Sentinel Copper and Enterprise Nickel Mines.
The delegation, led by newly appointed Commissioner of Police Paul Achiume, included Deputy Commissioner Desmond Mwanza and Senior Assistant Commissioner Kennedy Mumbi. The visit aimed to familiarize the team with the operations of the mines.
Upon arrival, the team was welcomed by Assistant General Manager Frederic Wouters, who provided a detailed overview of the mining operations and FQML’s Corporate Social Investment (CSI) initiatives, which benefit the host community and the Kalumbila district.
Following the briefing, the delegation toured the Sentinel Copper Mine. The Commissioner assured FQML’s management of the Zambia Police’s ongoing support to safeguard the investment, which plays a crucial role in contributing to the national economy.
