Ghana is also a major producer of bauxite, manganese and diamonds. The country has 23 large-scale mining companies producing gold, diamonds, bauxite and manganese, and, there are also over 300 registered small scale mining groups and 90 mine support service companies.〔 Other mineral commodities produced in the country are natural gas, petroleum, salt, and silver.〔Bermúdez-Lugo, Omayra.
