President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has commissioned Ghana's largest single gold stream mine in the Talensi District of the Upper East Region.
The Project, undertaken by the Cardinal Namdini Gold Limited (CNML), a subsidiary of Shandong Gold Limited, a Chinese mining firm, is an open-cast (surface) gold mine and has an initial lifespan of 15 years.
The area is a green field - the first in Ghana, since Newmont Akyem Company poured its first gold from a green field in 2013.
It is the first project of its kind in Ghana; and one of the largest single gold mines in the West African Sub region.
