According to specialized media, the African country Ghana has become the largest supplier of gold in Africa. At the end of 2018, it exported 158 tons of yellow precious metal.

According to the regional agency Ghana News Agency, last year, Ghana became the largest gold producer on the African continent. In its report, the agency refers to data from the World Bank.

The past years, the gold mining industry of Ghana has been subjected to sharp criticism due to environmental pollution. But thanks to the government’s nature conservation program, the situation is gradually improving in this direction.
