Dynacor signs MoU with Ghanaian partner

Dynacor Group Inc. (DNG) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Ansong Askew Ltd. in Ghana. This MOU sets a framework for planning and due diligence. The goal is to establish a joint venture agreement (JVA) in Ghana's gold processing sector.

The collaboration aims to explore business opportunities for both organizations. It will also help regulate Ghana’s artisanal mining sector. This will enable the Ghana Gold Board and miners to work together effectively.
