GoldBod, Better Brands Advance Talks on

Editor: Solomon Kwabena Nana-Ansah – Paaps – 

The Ghana Gold Board, in collaboration with Better Brands, has commenced strategic engagements aimed at advancing the formalisation of artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) in Ghana, with a strong emphasis on financing and structural support for miners.

Central to the discussions is the proposed establishment of a dedicated financing centre to support artisanal miners—particularly those engaged in hard rock mining—by improving access to capital, equipment, and technical services.

The initiative is also expected to facilitate the provision of modern machinery, including processing plants and other production equipment, to enhance operational efficiency and optimise mineral recovery.

The engagement forms part of broader efforts to streamline the ASM sector, improve productivity, and promote responsible and sustainable mining practices across the country.
