The African Minerals Policy Forum – Mining in Motion (AMPF–MiM 2026), scheduled for October 19 – 21 at the Destiny Arena, Accra, Ghana – welcomes mining company AngloGold Ashanti as a platinum sponsor.
Held under the theme “One Continent, One Policy—Aligning Africa’s Mineral Future,” the forum will convene African mining ministers, government officials, continental institutions, development partners, and investors to transition the continent from fragmented national approaches to unified regional policy
AngloGold Ashanti’s sponsorship reinforces its commitment to the African Union’s Africa Mining Vision, specifically supporting policy harmonization, expanded intra-African mineral trade, and local value addition.
Across its multi-country footprint – spanning Ghana, Guinea, Tanzania, Egypt, and the Democratic Republic of Congo – the company continues to invest heavily in operational growth and regional capacity. Key projects include the underground ramp-up at Obuasi and optimization at Iduapriem in Ghana, reserve expansion and feasibility studies for a major plant expansion at Geita in Tanzania, infrastructure advancement at Siguiri in Guinea, ongoing development at Sukari in Egypt, and its joint venture interest in Kibali in the DRC.
As a Platinum Sponsor, AngloGold Ashanti executives will participate directly in keynote sessions and contribute to discussions in the Ministerial Roundtables. Drawing on real-world operational insights from its diverse continental portfolio, the company will offer practical guidance on the investment, infrastructure, workforce skills, and policy frameworks necessary to drive sustainable industrialization, local content development, and responsible mining across Africa.
AMPF – MiM 2026 is convened under the leadership and patronage of the Ashanti Royal Family, with the Government of Ghana, through the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources, serving as a principal convening partner. His Majesty OtumfuoOsei Tutu II, Asantehene. King of the Ashanti Kingdom of Ghana, serves as Patron of the Forum.
The Forum takes place as Ghana prepares for President John Dramani Mahama’s anticipated chairmanship of the African Union in 2027, providing a timely platform for Ghana to engage with African governments and stakeholders on shared priorities around minerals, industrialization and regional economic integration. Outcomes from AMPF–MiM 2026 could help inform Ghana’s contribution to future African Union discussions and policy initiatives aimed at strengthening continental mineral value chains and advancing Africa’s broader industrializationagenda.
