    A statement from the Ghana Chamber of Mines signed by Ahmed Nantogmah, Director, Public Affairs and Environment, said the conference and the exhibition were being organized on the back of the increased activity on the mining scene and the renewed interest of the investor community in Ghana.

    Mr Daniel Owiredu, President of the Chamber, said the Ghana Mining Summit would discuss the unique prospects in the mining investment arena, spotlighting the movers and shakers, current hot spots, gaps and expert recommendations.

    “The summit will also provide an interactive three day platform for exhibitors to network with the movers and shakers of the extractive industry space in Ghana and beyond. At the Summit, delegates will learn about changes in regulatory policies, outlook for bulk resources like iron ore, bauxite, manganese, rare metals as well as precious metals”, he reiterated.
