The conference hosted exclusive mining promotion sessions for Laos, Timor-Leste and Ghana. It also included Ghanaian mining managers in its talent training program for the first time, strengthening professional exchanges to support global mining cooperation.
Frank Amoakohene, Ashanti regional minister of the Republic of Ghana, said his country continues to face ecological harm from unregulated mining, including the destruction of forests, degradation of farmland and water pollution.
He said that enforcement measures alone cannot fix the country's mining-related challenges, calling technology and innovation essential to sustainable industrial development.
