The latest announcement is out from Gemfields Group ( (PLLHF) ).
Gemfields Group Limited has announced that the Zambian government has reinstated a 15% export duty on emeralds, effective January 1, 2025, impacting the Kagem emerald mine, which Gemfields partially owns. This duty, combined with existing taxes, raises the effective tax rate on revenues to 21%, causing concerns about the sustainability and attractiveness of investments in the Zambian emerald sector. Gemfields plans to engage with the government to seek a reversal of this duty, emphasizing the lack of prior consultation on the decision.
