Note
The Sekenke Gold Mine (German: Sachsenwald, "Saxon Forest") was an underground gold mine in the Singida Region of Tanzania.

In the era before the Second World War, Sekenke was the largest single producer of gold in which is now the present-day Tanzania, which was the then colony of Tanganyika. The mine closed in 1959 and exploration rights in the area of the old mine now lay with Barrick Gold, through its subsidiary, Sekenke Exploration Limited, while the wider area around the mine is under exploration by Currie Rose Resources Inc.
