In doing this, the DPCU collaborated with Communities, Government Agencies, Non-Governmental Organizations and other Civil Society Groups in the District. The DMET instituted an effective and efficient system for tracking the processes of executing the development activities and projects captured in the DMTDP and other socio-economic interventions in the entire District. This enabled the generation of timely reports that are reliable and contain vital information required by the National Development Planning Commission (NDPC) and the other relevant stakeholders for submission through the Western Regional Planning Coordinating Unit (RPCU) to serve as key inputs in the formulation of appropriate policies. The PHDA APR used a set of performance indicators and targets that were adopted to assess the progress of implementation of projects and programme undertaken in 2016 towards the achievement of the development goal and objectives outlined in the MTDP 2014 - 2017 of the Assembly. The APR, which is an output of a number of monitoring visits, review meetings and other consultative processes involved a number of stakeholders in its preparation. The 2016 Progress Report has been compiled based on the summary of achievements during the first to the fourth quarter of the year 2016, using its Annual Action Plan (AAP) as the base, and reference for comparison and analysis. PHDA, DPCU, 2016 Page 1 1.1 Status of Implementation of the District Medium Term Development Plan Prestea Huni-Valley District’s MTDP has been prepared to cover a period between 2014-2017. The DMTDP is in its fourth year of implementation after the 2017 development budget was approved and adopted by the General Assembly. Out of a total of One Hundred and Fifty (150) planned projects/programmes, One Hundred and Twenty-six (126) projects/programmes, representing 84 percent were implemented from the 2016 Annual Action Plan and have reached various stages of completion. The remaining Twenty-four (24) projects/programmes representing 16 percent which are still relevant to the course of the District’s development agenda have been rolled over to the 2017 AAP for implementation. Programmes and Projects implemented in the 2016 AAP covered all the six Thematic Areas captured by the DMTDP. 1.2 Purpose of Monitoring and Evaluation for the Year 2016 The primary principle of monitoring and evaluation is the improvement of services by informed decision making with the participation of all. In view of the fact that resources are always limited, there is the need to systematically and purposefully collect and analyze data on the activities taking place in a project or programme. It involves the routine gathering of information on all aspects of a project and supervising activities in progress to ensure that they are on course and as scheduled. The main objective of the M&E was to ascertain the level of achievements in the implementation of development policies, programmes, projects, activities and other socio-economic interventions that the District earmarked for the year 2016 as captured in the DMTDP (2014-2017). Again, another objective was to assess whether the programmes, projects and objectives stated are still relevant as well as finding out the reasons for not achieving the stated objectives. Besides, the 2016 monitoring and evaluation exercise was to generate timely reports to the National Development Planning Commission (NDPC) and other stakeholders through the Regional Planning Coordinating Units (RPCUs). It would also help the district to come out with Annual Progress Reports. PHDA, DPCU, 2016 Page 2 1.3 Processes Involved and Difficulties Encountered 1.3.1 Processes The following processes were followed in the preparation of the 2016 APR. The District Monitoring Team, as well as other relevant Heads of Departments undertook several monitoring visits to the programmes and projects sites during the year under review. Reports on these visits as well as quarterly field visits which were embarked upon by the members of the DMET were collated. The Annual Progress Reports submitted by Decentralized Departments, Agencies and Services of the Assembly were also collated and analyzed. Furthermore, data on what were achieved in terms of planned actions for the year, 2016 were also collated. These data were further analyzed to determine the success and failures and any deviations from the planned targets. The District Planning Coordinating Unit validated all the reports submitted by the various departments before the final report was presented to the appropriate offices. 1.3.2 Difficulties Encountered The major problems encountered were untimely release of needed information from the departments of the Assembly and also, inadequate and late release of funding for Monitoring and Evaluation Activities. Other difficulties encountered were; Commitment of some departments to their mother ministries is higher than to activities of the District Assembly. Late submission of requested information/data by department PHDA, DPCU, 2016 Page 3 CHAPTER TWO - MONITORING AND EVALUATION ACTIVITIES 2.0 Introduction This chapter discusses M&E Activities which includes programmes and projects status for the year 2016 and update on disbursements from funding sources as well as update on indicators and targets. Others include update on Critical

  • The Geology of the Gold Deposits of Prestea Gold Belt of Ghana*
    The Geology of the Gold Deposits of Prestea Gold Belt of Ghana* K. Dzigbodi-Adjimah and D. Nana Asamoah Dzigbodi-Adjimah, K. and Nana Asamoah, D., (2009), “The Geology of the Gold Deposits of Prestea Gold Belt of Ghana”, Ghana Mining Journal, Vol. 11, pp. 7 - 18. Abstract This paper presents the geology of the gold deposits along the Prestea gold belt of Ghana to assist exploration work for new orebodies along the belt. Prestea district is the third largest gold producer in West Africa after Obuasi and Tarkwa districts (over 250 metric tonnes Au during the last century). The gold deposits are structurally controlled and occur in a deep-seated fault or fissure zone that is regarded as the ore channel. This structure, which lies at the contact between metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks in Birimian rocks, is more open (and contains more quartz lodes) at the southern end around Prestea than at Bogoso to the north. The gold deposits consist of the Quartz Vein Type, (QVT) and the Dis- seminated Sulphide Type (DST). The QVT orebodies, which generally carry higher Au grades, lie within a graphitic gouge in the fissure zones whilst the DST is found mostly in sheared or crushed rocks near the fissure zones. Deposits were grouped into three in terms of geographic location and state of development; The deposits south of Prestea are the least developed but have been extensively explored by Takoradi Gold Company. Those at Prestea have been worked exclusively as underground mines on QVT orebodies by Prestea Goldfields Limited and its forerunners; Ariston and Ghana Main Reef companies until 1998 whilst the deposits north of Prestea, which were first worked as surface mines (on DST orebodies) by Marlu Mines up to 1952, were revived by Billiton Bogoso Gold in 1990.

  • Prestea/Huni Valley District
    PRESTEA/HUNI VALLEY DISTRICT Copyright © 2014 Ghana Statistical Service ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT No meaningful developmental activity can be undertaken without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, in addition to its socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. A population census is the most important source of data on the size, composition, growth and distribution of a country’s population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of national resources and government services, including the allocation of government funds among various regions, districts and other sub-national populations to education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users, especially the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies, with district-level analytical reports based on the 2010 PHC data to facilitate their planning and decision-making. The District Analytical Report for the Prestea/Huni Valley District is one of the 216 district census reports aimed at making data available to planners and decision makers at the district level. In addition to presenting the district profile, the report discusses the social and economic dimensions of demographic variables and their implications for policy formulation, planning and interventions. The conclusions and recommendations drawn from the district report are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence-based decision-making, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programmes.

AusIMM (CP) December 2014 Golden Star Resources Ltd. i Shrinkage Mining of the West Reef Resource, Prestea Underground Mine, Ghana NI 43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment Executive Summary (Item 1) Golden Star Resources Ltd. (“GSR”) is a Canadian Federally-incorporated, international gold mining and exploration company producing gold in Ghana, West Africa. GSR also conducts gold exploration in South America. The Prestea Underground Mine is an inactive underground gold mine located 15km south of the Bogoso mine and adjacent to the town of Prestea. The mine consists of two usable access shafts and extensive underground workings and support facilities. Access to the mine site is via an unpaved road from Tarkwa. The Prestea Underground Mine was mined from the 1870’s until 2002, when mining ceased following an extended period of low gold prices in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The Prestea mining area has produced approximately nine million ounces of gold, the second highest production of any mine in Ghana. The underground workings are extensive, reaching depths of approximately 1,450 meters and extending along a strike length of 9 kilometers. Underground workings can currently be accessed via two surface shafts, one near the town of Prestea (Central Shaft) and a second approximately four kilometers to the southwest at Bondaye.

It is not logical to expect the local preachers to contact the thousands of students, but the people can go to the brethren all over Ghana.
