Ghanaian Times (Accra) By Kingsley Asare

THE Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Chamber of Mines (GCM), Dr Kenneth Ashigbey, has proposed that the government should initiate investments in prospecting and exploration to obtain a larger portion of the nation’s mineral resources.

He said if the government desired larger equity in the mineral extraction industry, it must be involved from the beginning of the value chain, starting with prospecting and exploration.
Dr Ashigbey made the suggestion at a news conference in Accra last Thursday to highlight the contribution of GCM member companies to government revenue in 2024.
His response followed a question on how Ghana can increase the benefits it derives from its mineral resources.
