Gold mining that is rapidly expanding and has become an important means of revenue for an immense number of residents in geographic areas within which it is conducted. Nevertheless, despite this acknowledged possibility, gold extraction poses a variety of difficulties for those involved, with miner safety and health being particularly risky. Our study's objective is to investigate the balance between financial performance and safety in environmental sustainability in Ghana's gold mining sector.

Setting up other industries for the use of mining waste. This can help recycle mining waste and help make the environment safe and friendly
