Geologic map of the Tarkwa gold district in Ghana showing significant folding and faulting of the Birimian Geologic map of Birimian outcrops in Mali, at Bougouni and Kenieba. The Birimian rocks are major sources of gold and diamonds that extend through Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire, Guinea, Mali and Burkina Faso.
Ghana is characterized in general by low physical relief. The Precambrian rock system that underlies most of the nation has been worn down by erosion almost to a plain. [1] The highest elevation in Ghana, Mount Afadja in the Akwapim-Togo Ranges, rises 880 metres (2,890 ft) above sea level. [1] There are four distinct geographical regions. [1]

The regional geology is of thick steeply dipping sequences of metasediments, alternating with Proterozoic metavolcanic rocks, all part of the Birimian Supergroup, in northeast trending belts. The Kubi mine lies on the western margin of the Ashanti Gold Belt, at the Birimian-Tarwaian contact.
