Black Volta Gold Project
The Black Volta Gold Mine is expected to deliver significant socio-economic benefits to the people of Wa, Upper West Region, and Ghana at large. Over 1,000 jobs will be created during the construction phase, with hundreds of additional permanent jobs to follow once operations commence. The mine is expected to produce 163,000 ounces of gold annually in its first five years, tapering to 148,000 ounces over the first nine years. Scheduled to commence operations in 2026, the mine has an 11-year production lifespan and estimated reserves of approximately 1.37 million ounce Mineral Reserves, 2.8 million ounce Mineral Resources covering 934-square-kilometer exploration area.
