Final-year students at the University of Mines and Technology (UMaT), Tarkwa and Essikado campuses, recently participated in the sixth edition of the Exit in Readiness Mentorship Programme. The programme was organised by AngloGold Ashanti Iduapriem Mine in partnership with UMaT and the Ladies in Mining and Allied Professions (LiMAP-Gh).

Our Managing Director, Daniel Boadi, delivered a keynote address as Special Guest of Honour at the Tarkwa Campus, challenging graduating students to look beyond their immediate environment and prepare themselves for opportunities in the global job market. He emphasised that a degree provides a strong foundation, their ability to continually develop world-class competence, harness technology and distinguish themselves through integrity, sound judgement, adaptability and courageous leadership will be critical to unlocking future opportunities.

At the Tarkwa campus, Daniel Wilhelm Wilson, Manager – Labour and Industrial Relations, participated in the panel discussion. At Essikado Campus, Kwame Prempeh, Superintendent – Economic Development and Livelihood Restoration, delivered the Managing Director’s address, while Franklin Kludze Superintendent – HR Support, represented the Mine on the panel. Across both campuses, discussions provided practical insight into career development, industry expectations and emerging opportunities in the evolving world of work.

The future of mining in Ghana is set to be shaped by a new generation of innovators through the USD 750,000 AngloGold Ashanti Iduapriem Smart Systems Centre at the University of Mines and Technology (UMaT), commissioned last week.

The state-of-the-art Centre is expected to strengthen research, innovation and practical learning by providing students and researchers with access to advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence, robotics, machine learning, high-performance computing and data analytics, while developing the homegrown expertise needed to drive the digital transformation of Ghana’s mining industry.

Even before its official commissioning, the Centre was already demonstrating its impact. During its pilot phase, UMaT students designed and built two functional drones using locally fabricated materials, while another student team developed a prototype sanitary pad vending machine, showcasing the remarkable outcomes that are possible when young people are equipped with the right tools, mentorship and opportunities.

We are grateful to the University of Mines and Technology - UMaT; the Western Regional Coordinating Director, representing the Western Regional Minister; the Municipal Chief Executive for Tarkwa Nsuaem; the Minerals Commission; the Ghana Chamber of Mines; Nananom; our sister mining companies; industry stakeholders; the media; and everyone who joined us to commission this landmark facility. We look forward to strengthening our collaboration as we empower the next generation of innovators and advance the future of mining in Ghana.
