About us
Ignite Machinery and Mining is a wholy owned Ghanaian gold mining company with offices in Accra and Topremang ,Ghana, West Africa.
Our operations span across the rich Eastern gold belts of Ghana. Armed with a vast experience of mining and local knowledge, we began our journey as a small scale mining equipment company in 2019. After many successes in the rental business, in 2021 we were granted the license to become a large scale miner, allowing us to grow at pace into the organization we are today.
As a diversified resource company, our focus on sustainability is paramount. Whilst balancing economic and ecological factors, we have developed a reputation for delivering regional land sustainability of a standard that is second to none, achieving various regional and national awards along the way.
Our foundation is our management team, who have been on the company’s journey a long way before its formation. Combined, the team possess upwards of four decades of experience operating and producing gold in Eastern region of Ghana, one of the most prolific gold producing regions in the world. In addition to our 47.2km alluvial gold mining operation, we hold the rights to a number of concessions that will allow us to accelarate our growth further with a mine life of over 20 years.
