In a press statement issued on Wednesday, the company said the publication, which made various claims involving the Government of Ghana, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and some public officials, was produced without its knowledge or involvement.
According to the company, the views, allegations and conclusions contained in the report are solely those of the publisher and should not be interpreted as representing the position of RMG Company Ltd.
The management also rejected claims suggesting that the Government of Ghana or its officials supported or facilitated the takeover of its mining operations, stressing that it has no connection with such assertions and does not wish to be drawn into political debates or partisan controversies.
RMG reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining a professional and constructive relationship with the Government of Ghana and its institutions, noting that the growth of the mining sector depends on collaboration, mutual respect and strict adherence to the country’s mining laws and regulations.

RMG further urged the public, stakeholders and the media not to attribute any political position or commentary arising from the publication to the company.
The statement concluded by reaffirming RMG’s confidence in its partnership with the Government of Ghana, regulators, traditional authorities, host communities and business partners, expressing optimism about contributing meaningfully to Ghana’s economic growth and national development through responsible mining operations.
