Ghana: Mining laws are silent on cyanide spillages --- WACAM

Mining laws in the country are silent on provisions that address cyanide spillages and chemical pollution of water-bodies as well as community participation in decision-making processes.
A clear demarcation of active mining operations from communities, water-bodies, and protected areas of the country is needed to help curb and outlaw the practice whereby companies use water heads for mining activities.
