At the inaugural Bikita Minerals International Women’s Day commemorations, Vice General Manager Li Wen delivered a heartfelt tribute to the company’s female employees, hailing them as the “backbone of the company’s operations” and a vital force behind its success.

Speaking to an audience of female staff, Wen acknowledged the diverse roles women play across the organisation—from the production floor to administrative and leadership positions—and praised their resilience, excellence, and unwavering dedication.

“Women are the backbone of our operations, the driving force behind the company’s success, and the embodiment of grace under pressure.

“Whether on the front lines or in decision-making spaces, you have consistently demonstrated strength, leadership, and professionalism,” he said.

His remarks underscored Bikita Minerals’ growing recognition of gender equality as a business imperative.

Wen also reaffirmed the company’s commitment to fostering a workplace culture where women are supported, respected, and empowered to thrive.

The commemorations marked a significant step forward in the company’s efforts to celebrate women’s achievements and advance gender inclusivity within the mining sector—an industry traditionally dominated by men.
