加纳于2026年4月18日从黄金矿场接管Damang矿区, Ghana takes control of Damang Mine from Gold Fields on April 18, 2026, ending lease and transitioning to state ownership.

Gold Fields将于2026年4月18日将加纳Damang矿的控制权移交政府, Gold Fields will transfer control of Ghana’s Damang Mine to the government on April 18, 2026, ending a 12-month lease extension after the original lease expired in April 2025. 政府选择了国家所有权,这是符合采矿法的一项举措,在租赁期满后将资产返还国家。 The government chose national ownership, a move aligned with mining laws that return assets to the state upon lease expiry. 自2025年7月以来,一个过渡小组一直努力确保顺利移交工作,临时领导从4月19日开始,等待最后的操作人员任命,可能需要议会批准。 A transition team has worked since July 2025 to ensure a smooth handover, with interim leadership starting April 19 pending a final operator appointment, possibly requiring parliamentary approval. 一项2025年可行性研究发现,该矿至少可以再运行9年,每年10万至15万盎司,需要5亿至6亿美元的投资。 A 2025 feasibility study found the mine could operate for at least nine more years with 100,000 to 150,000 ounces annually, needing $500 million to $600 million in investment. 该矿雇用约500人,支持多达2 000人的生计。 The mine employs about 500 people and supports up to 2,000 livelihoods. 双方的目的是防止业务中断,这是对加纳采矿政策和投资者信心的一个关键考验。 Both sides aim to prevent operational disruption, a key test for Ghana’s mining policy and investor confidence.
