The Ghana Armed Forces have deployed military personnel to the premises of Adamus Resources Limited following the government’s revocation of the company’s mining leases.
According to multiple reports on Monday, April 27, 2026, soldiers have secured the entire operational area, from the Esiama gate through all sections of the concession, effectively placing the site under tight security control.
The deployment comes just hours after the government, through the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources, announced the revocation of Adamus’ mining leases covering the Akango, Salman, and Nkroful concessions.
However, Adamus has strongly rejected the decision, insisting it was taken without due process and based on allegations that do not reflect the reality of its operations.
This was contained in a statement issued on Monday, April 27, 2026.
In the statement, the company said it had taken note of the revocation and was responding “in the interest of accuracy and public clarity.”

“The company categorically denies any involvement in illegal mining activities or unlawful subcontracting,” it stated.
The company assured that it would take all necessary steps to protect its legal rights while maintaining engagement with stakeholders.
