President John Dramani Mahama says Ghana Gold Board does more than make export money. The board creates a tracking system to watch where gold comes from and how companies mine it. Officials want to make sure all gold exports come from places that protect the environment. Mahama spoke at the Mining Motion Summit Monday about changes to help Ghana's gold sector. The new system will trace gold from mines to buyers around the world.

Ghana Gold Board cleans up the gold trade and brings more money to the country. The board earned 2.7 billion dollars from gold sales between January and April this year. Government workers partner with the Lands Ministry to fix 10,000 hectares of damaged mining land. Private companies will lead the land restoration project across affected areas. Small miners will learn better ways to dig for gold without harming nature.

Ghana plans to get London Bullion Market Association approval for organic gold. The certification will make Ghana's gold worth more money on world markets. Gold Board trains artisanal miners to use sustainable mining methods. Better training helps workers protect forests and water sources during mining operations. These reforms help Ghana benefit more from natural resource wealth.
