EDITORS COMMENTS
Gold Dredging at Kyebi (Kibi), Ghana, West Africa (circa 1912) This evocative photograph captures the scene of gold dredging at Kyebi, now known as Kibi, in Ghana, West Africa. The image transports us back in time to the early 20th century, when the allure of gold brought prospectors from around the world to this part of the African coast. In the foreground, a dredger, a large machine used for mining gold from riverbeds, is in operation. The dredger's long, curved arm extends into the river, churning up sediment and water as it searches for precious gold deposits. A conveyor belt, visible at the base of the dredger, transports the extracted material to the surface, where it is then processed for gold. The photograph also reveals the industrious nature of the gold prospecting industry at Kyebi during this period. Men, likely of German descent, are seen working alongside the dredger, shoveling and sifting through the sediment for any potential gold finds. The scene is bustling with activity, with other prospectors and laborers in the background, adding to the sense of excitement and anticipation. Despite the industrious nature of the gold dredging operations at Kyebi, it is important to note that this photograph does not depict commercial use. Instead, it offers a glimpse into the prospecting efforts of individuals seeking their fortune in the rich gold deposits of Ghana. The image serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of gold and the human desire to seek it out, no matter the time or place.
