In August 2022 Sabine Luning collaborated with Benjamin Ampiah, Ebenezer Mannah, and Anthony Acquah to develop a script for filming the world of small-scale miners in Tarkwa.

Together they wanted to show how small-scale mining is intertwined with the history of this industrial mining town, how current gold mining practices involve collaborations between Ghanaians and Chinese, and how the government is trying to organize the small-scale mining sector.

Gideon Vink, Massihoud Barry, and Souleymane Drabo later joined from Burkina to collaborate in the actual filming.

This has resulted in the 15-minute documentary entitled: ‘Gold Matters in Tarkwa (Ghana) – Taking Small-Scale Mining to the Next Level’.
