Ghana is undertaking its most comprehensive mining law reforms in nearly two decades, aiming to shorten mining licence durations and ensure direct revenue-sharing with local communities. The government is also intensifying its fight against illegal mining (galamsey), with over 1,300 arrests, hundreds of excavators seized, and the deployment of thousands of Blue Water Guards to protect rivers and forests. The reforms seek to balance responsible mining, community benefits, and environmental protection, while revoking licences of non-compliant operators. Authorities emphasize that mining itself is not the problem, but lawlessness and lack of regulation. These efforts reflect a broader push for sustainable resource management and increased local participation in Ghana's mining sector.
