NAIMOS launches Operation Water Shield against illegal mining in Ghana
The National Anti-Illegal Mining Operations Secretariat (NAIMOS) has launched Operation WATER SHIELD, a sustained national enforcement campaign aimed at protecting Ghana’s major rivers, watersheds and other critical water resources from the effects of illegal mining.
The operation will focus on protecting strategic river source areas, preventing illegal miners from accessing riverbanks and waterways, and dismantling the logistics networks that support illegal mining.
As part of the operation, river corridors cleared of illegal mining activities will be monitored continuously to prevent reoccupation and support environmental recovery.
