“Indeed, Ghana’s Vice-President during the just ended West Africa Mining and Power Conference and Exhibition, held at the Accra International Conference Centre, lauded the  company for its trailblazing role and contributions towards the development of the  country.

Newmont proactively engaged the Bank of Ghana to on the governance, risk, compliance, and supply chain requirements associated with the deal. Following which it signed an agreement that met all the requirements of both parties in December 2021. 

Under the programme, the central bank which requires an estimated amount of ~10koz of  gold annually from members the Chamber of Mines over the next four to five years. 

Newmont will provide about 30% of the required amount annually based on its market  share within the mining industry in Ghana.
