Ghana’s bauxite mining progress

Ghana, one of the world's largest bauxite-producing countries but which has been suffering from floods causing raw material supply chain constraints for alumina production, is prioritising the enhancement of mining. In early December 2024, Presidential candidate John Dramani Mahama from the National Democratic Congress (Ghana) assured the residents of Nyinahin a development in the indigenous bauxite mining to create local jobs and drive national economic growth.
