The Minister for Lands and Natural Resources and Acting Minister for Environment, Science and Technology, Hon. Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah (MP), has arrived in South Africa to participate in the 2026 African Mining Indaba Conference, Africa’s largest mining investment and policy forum.
The high-level conference, which brings together governments, global mining companies, investors, and regulators from across the continent and beyond, serves as a key platform for attracting investment, shaping policy, and advancing responsible and sustainable mineral development in Africa.
Leading Ghana’s delegation, Hon. Armah-Kofi Buah is expected to engage in a series of strategic meetings and high-level dialogues, contributing to discussions on the major challenges and opportunities facing the mining industry.
A major highlight of Ghana’s participation will be the highly anticipated Ghana Day event, scheduled for Wednesday, February 11, 2026, where the Minister will headline proceedings. The event will showcase Ghana’s investment potential and promote the country’s extractive sector to international investors.
As Africa’s leading gold producer, Ghana’s presence at the Indaba underscores its commitment to strengthening the mining sector through sustainable practices and strategic global partnerships.
Ghana’s participation in the 2026 African Mining Indaba aligns with the vision of President John Dramani Mahama to deepen international cooperation, attract targeted investments, and position the mining sector as a key driver of national development.
