Accra, Ghana

Akwatia is a small town located in the Kwaebibirem District, Ghana (Eastern Region). Diamonds were first discovered along the River Birim, in an area nineteen miles northwest of Akwatia, in 1919. Over 100 million carats of diamonds have been recovered from the area by the British Government (our colonial masters) before gold was later discovered in my very location of the town.

My town is a place where lucky farmers sometimes finds nugget gold and diamonds in the ground during farming, mostly after major rain falls.The land of my entire community according to geological analysis has large deposit of gold/diamond and it is the only part of Ghana where you get 23+-karat purity of gold, others are below.

Our advantage is that, my family rules over majority of the land within my area, therefore we don't operate on just one site. Another advantage is that, you find more gold along the River Birim and we own majority of the land along the river (which is what brought about the dispute between the government and my family). We also have the right or the power to negotiate and own any land of our choice within our community.
