The National Anti-Illegal Mining Operations Secretariat (NAIMOS) Task Force has dismantled several illegal mining sites along the Ankobra River in the Western Region.
The riverine operation, carried out on 7 October 2025 in collaboration with the Nzema East Blue Water Guards, saw the destruction of seven chanfangs, over 100 makeshift shelters, and the seizure of mining equipment, including water pumping machines and gas cylinders.
NAIMOS also cleared a blocked stream feeding the Ankobra and immobilised a Hyundai excavator used in the operations.
