Ghana to Commission its First Large-scale Greenfield Mine in more than a Decade

The Cardinal Namdini mine, owned by Cardinal Resources, is expected to have an annual production of more than 350,000 ounces. Martin Ayisi, CEO of the Minerals Commission, said three other new mines, including a lithium project, will come onstream by 2026 to boost the West Africa nation’s minerals production and quicken a recovery from its worst economic crisis in a generation. Ghana last commissioned a large-scale greenfield mine in 2013 when miner Newmont launched its Akyem site in southeastern Ghana.
