How we report
We check every figure against its source before we publish. For example, prices come from GoldBod, reserves and trade data come from the Bank of Ghana, and licence news comes from the Minerals Commission. When a story develops, we update the original article and add a dated note at the top. As a result, the full story always stays in one place.
In addition, when news changes a number on our Intelligence Dashboard, we mark it. Those stories also appear on the dashboard, next to the figure they changed.
Who reads our Ghana gold news
Our readers are in Accra, Dubai, London and beyond. Many of them are not Ghanaian, so we show prices in both cedis and US dollars. We also explain local terms, such as GoldBod windows and small-scale licences, in plain English.
