Galiano Gold Inc. (NASDAQ: GAU) is a Canadian-based gold miner that holds a 90% interest in the Asanko Gold Mine in Ghana’s Amansie West District. The operation comprises the Nkran, Esaase, Abore and Miradani North open-pit zones on the Asankrangwa Gold Belt, and the company, formerly Asanko Gold Inc., rebranded to Galiano Gold in April 2020.
In Q1 2024 the mine produced 115,000 oz of gold, delivering a cash cost of $945 per ounce and an all-in sustaining cost of $1,180 per ounce-both comfortably below the current spot price of roughly $2,100/oz. Ghana’s mining sector is expanding at ~5% YoY, driven by supportive government policies and rising global demand for inflation-hedging assets, which underpins Galiano’s growth outlook.
