 Initially
built with a small dam, an enlargement project was undertaken
in 1981 to increase the size of the lake. After the enlargement,
the main wall including the spillway, had been lengthened
from 225 metres to 305 metres. The maximum height of the dam
was raised to 47,2 metres. Consequently, the maximum depth
of the water increased from 33,3 metres to 39,4 metres. The
surface area of the water body became 2 600 hectares from
the original 1 510 hectares, making it one of the largest
in-land dams in Zimbabwe.
