Well supportedReported by 4 independent outlets

Ghana’s Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources agreed with China’s Ministry of Natural Resources on a three-point strategy to address illegal mining and enhance technical cooperation in geological surveys. This agreement was reached during a high-level meeting in Tianjin, China. The collaboration aims to promote responsible investment in Ghana’s mining sector, ensuring that Chinese companies operating in Ghana adhere to the highest standards and face appropriate sanctions if involved in illegal mining activities (galamsey).
