Heath Goldfields Ltd. has announced plans to inject $135 million in its first year of operations, with the arrival of a $35 million state-of-the-art mining fleet marking a major step in the revival of the BogosoโPrestea Gold Mine.
The fleet, comprising Komatsu 785 haul trucks, excavators, dozers and loaders, has been deployed through a strategic partnership with Fridoug Company Limited, a Ghanaian local contractor, underscoring the companyโs strong commitment to local content and participation in the mining value chain.
Management indicated that the arrival of the equipment forms a critical part of a broader, phased investment strategy aimed at investing $500m over a ten-year period, restoring the mine to sustainable production, improving operational efficiency, and ensuring safe and reliable mining activities.
โThis development reflects our readiness to make the necessary investments to reposition BogosoโPrestea as a modern, competitive and sustainable mining operation,โ the Managing Director noted.
Beyond operational gains, the collaboration with Fridoug is expected to drive job creation, enhance skills development and stimulate economic activity within host communities.
Industry analysts say the scale of the planned investment signals renewed confidence in the mineโs recovery prospects and highlights the growing role of Ghanaian contractors in large-scale mining operations.
Heath Goldfields reaffirmed its commitment to responsible and sustainable mining, emphasizing its focus on delivering long-term value to stakeholders while contributing meaningfully to Ghanaโs gold production.
