Ghana is seeking deeper mining partnerships with China, with a focus on value addition rather than merely extracting and exporting raw minerals. The Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, made this call during his address at the Ministerial Forum on International Mining Cooperation and the opening of the 28th China Mining Conference and Exhibition (CHINA MINING 2026).
