Ghana has slipped seven places in the latest Global Mining Investment Attractiveness Index, dropping from 46 out of 82 jurisdictions in 2024 to 53rd out of 68 in 2025.

In 2024, Ghana scored 56.98%, placing it 46th.

In 2025, the score dipped slightly to 55.21%, but the larger drop in ranking reflects significant gains by other countries assessed in the survey.

The Fraser Institute's Annual Mining Survey evaluated how mineral endowments and public policy factors, such as taxation and regulatory uncertainty, influence exploration investment.

On the African continent, Ghana ranked 8th out of 16 countries, just two steps ahead of South Africa, with an overall score of 55%.
