Okoruso Flourite Mine Outjiwarongo , Namibia |
We stopped in Outjiwarongo and that town had a bad vibe . I wouldnt spend but a moment here , nothing longer than to fuel up . We visited the Okoruso Fluorite mine . The company has a specimen shed and sells minerals that the miners collect . The proceeds from these mineral sales goes into the miners entertainment fund and purchases sports equipment and uniforms , and also toys for the miners children. |

We stayed at the Outjibamba lodge in Outjiwarongo. The hotel was very nice . Internet was slow and you couldnt use your own laptop . They allowed you ten minutes on the hotel computer to check email . I was told they were going to have a internet room with wireless soon. Food service was typically slow as to be expected. I dined on Ostrich which was tough . |
