Ghana 🇬🇭 Ends Raw Gold Exports
Ghana has announced it will stop exporting raw gold and begin refining all gold domestically before export, starting in February.
The decision follows an agreement between Ghana’s Gold Board and Gold Coast Refinery Limited, with technical support from South Africa’s Rand Refinery.
As Africa’s largest gold producer, Ghana aims to add more value locally, create jobs, boost revenue, and curb illicit gold trade by introducing officially marked Ghanaian gold bars.
