<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''Mulungushi Dam''' located 50 km south-east of [[Kabwe]], [[Zambia]] was constructed by the Broken Hill Development Company on the [[Mulungushi River]] and opened in 1925 by the then [[Prince of Wales]] (the future [[Edward VIII]]) to provide [[hydroelectric power]] to the Broken Hill Mine in Kabwe (known as Broken Hill at that time). It is a sister facility to the [[Mita Hills Dam]] 60 km to its north-east. The Lunsemfwa [[Hydropower]] company currently controls the power stations of both dams and the one at [[Lunsemfwa River|Lunsemfwa Falls]].<br />
<br />
The man-made lake created by the Mulungushi Dam is approximately 20 km long and 2-3 km wide and is home to the Mulungushi Boat Club and a local fishing competition.<br />
