Ghana's Gold Exports Soar, Exceeding 2023 Totals in First Four Months of 2025
Ghana's Gold Exports Soar in 2025: January-April Figures Exceed 2023 Totals ACCRA, GHANA – Ghana's gold export earnings have experienced a remarkable surge during the first four months of 2025, significantly surpassing the total earnings for the entire year of 2023. A recent news segment from Joy 99.7 FM highlighted this positive economic trend, revealing that exports from January to April 2025 have already exceeded $2.7 billion. This represents a substantial increase compared to the $2.49 billion recorded during the same period in 2024. The segment featured an interview with an expert who attributed the growth to various factors, including increased global demand and successful negotiations with major mining companies. "The gold purchases and exports have been helped by the Bank of Ghana's minimal intervention and the fact that the new government is taking a more measured approach to spending," the expert explained. "This has led to a substantial inflow of revenue from gold alone." The strong performance in the first quarter of 2025 bodes well for Ghana's economy, signaling a positive outlook for the year ahead. The government's strategic approach to managing its resources and its collaboration with the mining sector have collectively contributed to this impressive achievement.
