Keypoints:
- Ghana’s Minister to keynote 2025 summit
- ASGM formalisation and reforms highlighted
- Global investors targeted for new deals
GHANA’S position as a global gold mining hub will take centre stage at the upcoming Mining in Motion 2025 Summit, where Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, will deliver a keynote address. The event, held under the theme Sustainable Mining & Local Growth – Lev
eraging Resources for Global Impact, will bring together national policymakers, industry leaders and international investors to shape the future of Ghana’s mining sector.
The summit will serve as a strategic platform to hig
hlight Ghana’s progress in modernising its artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) industry while promoting broader investment opportunities in the country’s gold value chain.
A vision for sustainable and inclusive growth
Minister Buah’s address will spotlight Ghana’s ambitious reforms aimed at enhancing transparency, boosting local content, and attracting sustainable investment. The country’s ASGM sector currently supports over one million livelihoods and generated $5bn in gold export revenue in 2024 alone—underscoring its vital role in national development.
Key initiatives, including the Ghana Landscape Restoration and Small-Scale Mining Project in partnership with the World Bank, aim to formalise the ASGM industry and empower District Mining Committees across the country. Ghana’s recently introduced Gold Board will also expand access to finance and markets for small-scale miners, while the 2024 Cooperative Mining Policy is set to strengthen community-led mining cooperatives through improved technical and financial support.
These reforms are designed to elevate Ghana as a model for ASGM governance across the continent.
Summit to drive investment and partnerships
As part of the summit, Minister Buah will engage in exclusive investor roundtables and high-level networking sessions with global mining stakeholders. These interactions are expected to generate new deals and cross-border partnerships focused on sustainable exploration, responsible mining, and value chain development.
The Mining in Motion 2025 Summit also offers delegates a chance to explore Ghana’s regulatory landscape, identify project pipelines, and connect with key decision-makers committed to responsible sector growth. From medium to large-scale mining firms to community operators, the summit is tailored to deliver actionable insights and investment-ready opportunities.
