Akwatia (Eastern Region) 01.10.2002 – The Ghana Consolidated Diamonds Limited (GCD) at Akwatia in the Eastern Region, one of the richest diamond mines in Africa with a 746 workforce, is on the verge of collapse. All the equipment and structures have become obsolete; some were acquired about 70 years ago. This came to light when the Minister of Mines, Kwadwo Adjei-Darko, visited on Wednesday to see how best the government could help to revamp the company.
