Adamus Resources Limited has welcomed the government’s decision to provide a pathway for resolving issues surrounding the company and restoring the mine to sustainable operations.
The company described the outcome of a meeting at the Presidency as a significant and constructive step forward in protecting the future of the Adamus mine, its employees, contractors, suppliers, host communities and other stakeholders whose livelihoods depend on the operation.
Under the agreed framework, Adamus, the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources and the Minerals Commission will jointly develop a 12-month roadmap for turning around the mine.
A six-member management team, comprising three representatives from Adamus and three from government, will supervise implementation of the programme.
Adamus said the collaborative approach allows all parties to focus on preserving and rebuilding a strategically important Ghanaian mining operation while protecting value for the country and its stakeholders.
In a statement issued by management, the company assured employees, contractors, suppliers, host communities, business partners, investors and the public of its commitment to the future of the mine.
“We understand the uncertainty and anxiety that the developments of recent months may have caused. We also recognise the importance of the mine to the livelihoods of families, businesses and communities in the Western Region, as well as its contribution to Ghana’s mining sector and the national economy,” the statement said.
The company disclosed that the latest development provides renewed hope and creates a structured opportunity for stakeholders to work together towards a solution, urging employees, contractors, suppliers and communities to remain calm and supportive as the process unfolds.
Adamus said it will continue to engage constructively with government and relevant institutions and provide updates as the process progresses.
The company stated that it will work within the 12-month framework in good faith, with a focus on restoring the mine to a stronger and more sustainable footing.
It noted that as one of the few operating indigenous large-scale mines in Ghana, preserving its productive capacity would help protect jobs, support local businesses, sustain government revenues, and strengthen Ghanaian participation in the mining industry.
“We remain confident that with cooperation between Government, Adamus, employees, financiers, suppliers and communities, the challenges confronting the mine can be overcome,” it said.
The next milestone under the agreement is the presentation of the 12-month turnaround roadmap to the Presidency within two weeks.
Adamus said the process is not simply about resolving a dispute, but about protecting a Ghanaian asset, restoring confidence, preserving livelihoods and creating conditions for a viable future.
It expressed gratitude to the Government, the Presidency, the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources and the Minerals Commission for their willingness to engage, and thanked employees, host communities, suppliers, financial partners and the public for their patience and support.
