ADAMUS Resources Limited, a gold mining company at Nkroful in the Ellembelle District in the Western Region has presented a cheque for GH¢10,000 to the Ellembelle District Assembly towards the centenary celebration of the birth of Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah, the first President of Ghana.
At a ceremony to present the cheque, the Finance and Business Director of Adamus Resources Limited, Mr Mark Addo, said the company was proud to be part of the celebration and that the donation was to help build the assembly’s capacity to provide social amenities for the people of the district.
He explained that Adamus Resources was an emerging gold mining company developing the Nzema Gold Operations.
He said the company had plans to become a gold producer within the next 12 to 18 months with the production of 100,000 ounces of gold per year for the next 10 years.
As part of its social responsibility, he said, Adamus Resources in the past years had developed several projects in the communities within its catchment area.
Mr Addo said the company’s main priority in community relations and development had been targeted at youth education, capacity building and infrastructural support to improve the quality of lives of people in the area.
He said the company had spent US$200,000 on projects, including the provision of mechanised borehole to the Nkroful Agricultural Senior High School and the training of 91 youth from the communities to acquire technical skills in welding, plumbing, electrical works, carpentry and catering.
Mr Addo said the company had also built 10 classroom blocks for various communities in its area of operation.
The Ellembelle District Chief Executive, Mr Daniel Kemambeku Eshun, promised that the donation would be put to good use.
