Cassius Mining accuses Ghanaian government of favoring Chinese company, leading to mine closure and financial losses.

An Australian mining company, Cassius Mining, has filed a $443 million claim against the Ghanaian government for multiple contract breaches. The company alleges that these breaches led to the loss of its entire gold mine in Ghana.
