Mchuchuma in south western Tanzania near Ludewa off the northern tip of Lake Nyasa, is the site of major coal deposits. There is also a thermal power station costing$612m. Recent studies indicate that Mchuchuma/Ketewaka coal deposits should be connected to the coast by rail to facilitate exports. The railway that will be built will be part of the Mtwara Development Corridor project.
