Ghana Chamber of Mines Condemns Illegal Mining Clashes, Extends Condolences to Victims’ Families

The Ghana Chamber of Mines has expressed deep condolences to the families of victims affected by recent clashes between illegal miners and state security personnel at mining sites in Obuasi, Ntotroso, and Kenyase.

In a statement issued on January 20, 2025, the Chamber described the loss of lives and injuries sustained during the incidents as a tragic development. “Our thoughts and prayers are with the affected families and communities,” the statement read.

Dr. Sulemanu Koney, CEO of the Chamber, reiterated the organization’s commitment to responsible and sustainable mining practices. He condemned illegal mining activities, citing their adverse impact on safety, the environment, and Ghana’s mining sector.

“We strongly condemn any form of illegal mining activities, which not only compromise the safety of individuals but also harm the environment and undermine the country’s mining sector,” he stated.

The Chamber acknowledged the Government of Ghana’s ongoing efforts to curb illegal mining and commended the role of state security agencies in maintaining law and order.

However, it also called for a more holistic approach to tackling the root causes of illegal mining.

“The strategic importance of the mining sector to national development cannot be overemphasized. It is therefore imperative to work together to prevent such unfortunate incidents,” the statement emphasized.

The Chamber pledged to collaborate with the government, civil society organizations, traditional authorities, and local communities to promote sustainable mining practices and maximize the sector’s benefits for Ghanaian citizens.

As the affected communities grapple with the aftermath of the clashes, the Chamber encouraged residents of Obuasi, Ntotroso, and Kenyase to remain calm and exercise restraint.

The statement concluded with a reiteration of heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families and a call for collective efforts to ensure public safety and protect investments in the mining sector.
