World Gold Council commits US$250,000 grant to Ghana’s responsible small-scale mining programme
The Government of Ghana has secured an initial US$250,000 development grant from the World Gold Council as part of a broader US$1 million to support responsible artisanal and small-scale gold mining and strengthen efforts to curb illegal gold trade.
David Tait, said Ghana’s initiative would serve as a model for other gold-producing countries facing challenges with artisanal and small-scale mining.
The agreement will also support the establishment of a national network of trusted gold processing plants to enable small-scale miners process their ore more efficiently and channel their gold through formal markets.
