Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The Precious Minerals Marketing Company (PMMC) is planning to establish jewelry schools at the University of Mines and Technology(UMaT) and the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KUNST), Nana Akwasi Awuah, its Managing Director has said. He noted that the school would bridge the gap between the academia and the industry, adding, \u201cwe intend to begin at the diploma level.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr Awuah announced PMMC\u2019s plan when he made a presentation on proposals for sustainable value addition of precious minerals in Ghana at a stakeholders’ forum that brought together officials from Precious Minerals Marketing Company (PMMC), the Federation of Ghana Goldsmiths and Jewelers Association (FGGJA) and Ghana Geological Survey Authority (GGSA) in Tarkwa.<\/p>\n

According to Mr Awuah, the government had noticed that it was about time it exercised control of the gold trading sector, and that offices would soon be established in mining communities throughout the country.<\/p>\n

He told participants at the forum organised by Friends of the Nation (FoN), a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), involved in socio-environmental advocacy in the Western Region that the government had also planned to set up a central gold and jewelry market to promote the precious minerals trade for all involved. The FGGJA and GGSA also made presentations on proposals for sustainable value addition of precious minerals and skills training in Ghana.<\/p>\n
