Investing In Gold Ghana

Investment opportunities exist for investors to set up manufacturing plants and machinery for the mining industry.

Gold Refinery and Value Added Products
Ghana is already producing over two million ounces of gold per annum. In spite of this level of production, there is no refinery in the country and the bullion is exported for final refining. Feasibility studies have confirmed the viability of refining gold in Ghana. Such a facility will serve other gold producing countries within the sub-region. This is a project that investors with the technical know-how would wish to consider.

Opportunities also exist for setting up downstream production facilities to manufacture key inputs for the mining industry eg mill balls, drill bits, cyanide and activated carbon etc., commemorative coins, jewellery and electronic components. Investors could take advantage of the Industrial Freezone facility to produce such items for the international market.

Activated Carbon
Activated carbon is employed extensively in the cyanidation process for gold production. The raw material for the manufacture of the commodity – coconut husk-is readily available locally. Investors are invited to consider the establishment of a facility to produce the commodity.

Decorative Stones
Ghana is endowed with extensive deposit of granite of various types. These deposits could be exploited to produce high quality floor tiles. Opportunities exist to produce dimension stones for the country’s building industry.
