Executives of Gold Fields Ghana have met with their counterparts at the Minerals Income Investment Fund (MIIF or the Fund) to discuss the operations of the company, potential investment opportunities for the Fund, and areas of collaboration.
The discussions held on December 18, 2025, highlighted the critical role of Gold Fields’ investments in Ghana which accounts for 31% of Gold Fields’ global production.
The delegation from Gold Fields Ghana Ltd was led by Elliot Twum, Senior Vice President and Managing Director, Emma Morrison, Regional Head, Corporate Affairs, and William Empeh, Head, Human Resource.
MIIF delegation was led by Kwabena Barning, Chief Technical Officer, and other senior management members.
Among the many things discussed in the meeting, Mr Twum, in his presentation, stressed on the pillars underpinning their strong track record of operational success, which will continue to drive contributions going forward.
The key success factors, he said, remain the presence of experienced technical and management team, robust organizational governance and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) footprint which he elaborated on further during the discussion, the country’s significant resource potential, and their presence in a tier-one mining jurisdiction.
“Collectively, these elements reflect their unwavering commitment to sustaining operations and advancing asset development in Ghana,” he added.
Mr Twum on ESG, reflected on the company’s establishment of Ghana’s first mine foundation, the construction of a US$27 million for a 33km asphalted Tarkwa-Damang road, the US$13 million 10,000-capacity stadium, and rehabilitation of tailings storage into productive farmland.
These efforts, he noted, earned the company the “Best Green Mine” and “Best Performer in Environmental Management” awards for 2024.
The MIIF team expressed appreciation to Gold Fields for the engagement, emphasizing MIIF’s keen interest in exploring future collaboration with Gold Fields through knowledge sharing, capacity building, and any other areas of mutual benefits.
