Today at the Africa Down Under Conference in Perth, I had the honour of presenting Ghana’s renewed vision for mining.
We are determined to ensure our mineral wealth translates into tangible improvements for our people—building better schools, stronger hospitals, and creating decent jobs for the next generation.
Ghana’s potential, however, extends far beyond gold.
We are strategically building integrated industries around our bauxite, iron, steel, and lithium resources to power both our national development and the global clean energy future.

As we open our doors to investment, we are committed to partnerships that prioritise responsible and sustainable practices, ensuring that value is added right here at home.
With political stability, progressive reforms, and Accra as the host of the ACFTA Secretariat, Ghana is the natural gateway to a unified African market of 1.3 billion people.
