The Tokwe Mukorsi Dam is a concrete-face rock-fill dam on the Tokwe River just downstream of its confluence with the Mukorsi River about 72 km (45 mi) south of Masvingo in Masvingo Province Zimbabwe. Construction on the dam began in June 1998 but stalled in 2008. Salini Impregilo began to finish the dam in 2011. Heavy flooding in February 2014 caused a partial failure on 4 February on the downstream face of the dam.
