Ghana is undertaking its most significant overhaul of mining laws in nearly two decades, aiming to shorten mining licence durations and require mining companies to share revenue directly with local communities. The reforms are designed to boost community investment, promote responsible mining, and address the environmental and social impacts of illegal mining (galamsey). The government has intensified its crackdown on illegal mining, arresting over 1,300 suspects and seizing hundreds of excavators and machinery. New initiatives, such as the Blue Water Guards and the Responsible Mining Programme, are being rolled out to protect water bodies and empower local miners. These changes reflect a broader push for equity, sustainability, and local benefit in Ghana's vital mining sector.
