From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Queen's Mine is a village in Matabeleland North, Zimbabwe and is located about 55 km north-east of Bulawayo along the Bulawayo-Eastnor road.

The village grew up around the Queen's Mine, which was originally pegged on the site of ancient diggings in 1893, and is currently operated by Duration Gold.[1]

It derived its name from the nearby Ndebele queen's kraal.[citation needed]
