The Botswana Chamber of Mines
The Botswana Chamber of Mines (BCM) exists to serve the interests of the mining industry in the country and to influence policy decisions and strategic intents within the government, non-governmental organizations and related bodies.
In its vision it has placed itself to be an effective and unified voice for the mining industry that also educates and shares knowledge with its stakeholders.
It has managed to fulfil its mandate in the short history that it has been in existence and the future looks bright as the mining industry expands through exploration and establishing mining operations around the country.
All mining companies in the country are affiliated to the Botswana Chamber of Mines and the organization is run by an executive committee.
