Gold Fields Ghana has defended its application to renew the Tarkwa mining lease, arguing that the mine remains one of Ghana’s largest economic contributors after paying GH¢5.8 billion in taxes, royalties, dividends, and other statutory payments in 2025, while spending another GH¢8.8 billion on local procurement.
