Government has announced that the Mining Cadastre Licensing System, which experienced a temporary shutdown from 1st June 2025, has now been fully restored and operational.
Ministry of Mines and Minerals Development Principal Public Relations Officer, Shamwinda Tembo, says the disruption was due to the expiration of contractual obligations with Spatial Dimension, the South Africa-based system developer.
Mr. Tembo said that the Ministry has taken interim measures to reopen the platform, while finalizing contractual arrangements to ensure the system’s continued management.
“Clients can now access all services provided by the Mining Cadastre Department through the following portal, Mining Cadastre Map Portal: https://portals.landfolio.com/Zambia/ and Online Transactional Portal: https://portal.miningcadastre.com,” said Mr. Tembo in a statement issued to RCV News in Lusaka today.
He said that the Ministry regrets any inconvenience caused and appreciates the public’s patience and cooperation during this period.
