Mhangura (formerly Mangula) is a small town in Mashonaland West province, Zimbabwe. The name was probably derived from the Shona word mhangura meaning "red metal" in reference to copper. According to the 1992 census Mhangura had a population of 11,175. Mhangura is also the name of a copper mine which closed in the late 1990s.
Zimbabwean cricketer Natsai Mushangwe comes from Mhangura.
