The World Gold Council, led by its Chief Executive Officer, David Tait, has held a high-level strategic meeting in Accra with the Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod), Sammy Gyamfi, and members of the Board’s Governing Council.
The engagement focused on advancing the formalisation of the artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) sector, with particular emphasis on strengthening traceability systems across the gold value chain in line with internationally accepted standards and best practices.
Both sides also explored proposals aimed at deepening collaboration between GoldBod and the World Gold Council, especially in areas that would enhance transparency, responsible sourcing and sustainability within Ghana’s gold industry.
Additionally, discussions touched on potential strategic partnerships to establish commercially viable and environmentally sustainable processing plants in Ghana to support ASM gold production, a move expected to add value locally while promoting responsible mining practices.
