Ghana sees slight dip in gold production this year

Ghana expects to produce 2.7-million ounces of gold in 2016, down only marginally from last year as new production offsets a decline in output due to lower global prices and ageing mines, the Chamber of Mines said on Wednesday. Gold is the single biggest revenue earner for Ghana, which is following a three-year aid deal with the International Monetary Fund.
