Some of the positive things I discovered while visiting small scale mining sites engaged in very responsible mining. So, how does UTAG explain its call for a blanket ban on ALL small scale mining? Doesn’t make sense one bit!

CLEANING UP THE MINING SECTOR “All foreign investors and foreign-controlled entities currently participating in the small-scale gold mining sector are required to regularise their operations by transitioning to mining operations above the prescribed small-scale thresholds. Accordingly, all such operators shall, by 01 January 2027: a) Increase production capacity to levels beyond twenty (20) kilograms of gold per month; and/or b) Recapitalise investment to beyond United States dollars Fifteen million (US$15,000,000), thereby qualifying for operation under the large-scale mining category applicable to foreign investment participation.”

Abyssal plains are the most common habitat on Earth. Sourcing metals here could reduce pressure from mining on rarer, more biodiverse ecosystems—like our rainforests—which make up a small proportion of global habitat. Even at scale, this industry will impact a very small percentage of abyssal seafloor, and test mining data finds rapid re-colonization of disturbed areas by pioneer species, while sediment plumes will have no impact on biodiversity. $TMC #deepseamining

Today during a committee hearing on the Boundary Waters, we discovered that one of the witnesses testifying was actually a lobbyist for a mining company. This company would profit off of mining in the Boundary Waters, all while polluting and causing irreparable harm to the land.

Months later, I was right and they are wrong!!! Just fix what your promised and stop the talking… When I tell you these NDC party and government are a scam, believe cos I know what I am talking about. A few weeks to elections, they together with their friends like Osagyefo Oliver Barker-Vormawor calling for a ban on small scale mining. I disagreed and I still disagree today cos I don’t think it’s a strategy that provides long term solution. The NPP government placed a 20months ban on small scale mining between April 2017 - December 2018, it worked temporarily until it was lifted and we went back to ground zero. Ban isn’t a sustainable strategy, it has been tried before and a new approach is needed. The NDC and their friends insisted the ban was the way to go and they went ahead to actually make a 120 day social contract with Ghanaians to ban small scale mining. Today, they are in government and the NDC are running away from the same thing they fought me on but insisted was the way to go. The people are simply calling on you to do as promised. Your call now! And Guess what, their political allies who were on streets for weeks in the name of freedom fighters and insisted on a ban are today demonstrating and no longer calling for the ban. Today, they are no more calling for a ban but baby sitting their Friends in Government and telling them to end Galamsey before their Presidential primaries. It’s 2025, and I have won the debate on the ban against small scale mining. If the NDC think it’s the way to go as they disagreed with me in the past, then they shld go ahead and implement the ban. The NDC have a founding history with enabling Galamsey and some of us knew it long ago, said it and it’s playing out in plain sight. Dear government, you asked for evidence and we have just served the evidence. Deal with Galamsey! #GalamseyEnablers

On a scale of very OP to extremely OP, how OP is this? Thanks to Anoyomouse for the pull request :). I'm debating whether to include that last one, but I mean, by the time you have access to that many things, is anyone REALLY still mining manually anyway?

🎙️The Wild Truth About Bitcoin Mining Ep. 92 with Bob Burnett My guest today is Bob Burnett, veteran technologist, former Gateway CTO, and now CEO of Barefoot Mining. From consumer tech pioneer with eight U.S. patents to leader in sovereign Bitcoin mining, Bob shares his vision for “wild mining,” where miners own their energy using innovative energy sources. He challenges the myth that mining is only for massive corporations, showing how small, strategically placed operations can be both profitable and decentralizing. We discuss adoption curves, block template decentralization, why nation-states should build mining infrastructure before buying Bitcoin reserves, lessons from the early PC revolution, and the coming energy race with AI and High-Performance Computing. ► If you got value, please like, comment, share, follow and support my work.
