Burkina : Quand l’or porte à bout de bras les exportations de biens du pays
In Burkina Faso, the Directorate General of Economy and Planning (DGEP) published its economic outlook report at the end of July. The document indicates that "as of the end of June 2026, industrial gold production reached 26,752 tons, an increase of 10.3% compared to the end of June 2025." For June 2026 alone, this "gold production reached 4,477 tons, an increase of 39.6% compared to June 2025."
Sales of raw gold increased by 1,790.8 billion CFA francs.
It goes without saying that gold has been produced in abundance in Burkina Faso for the past few months. In fact, it is gold that is driving the country's exports.
Indeed, according to the economic outlook note, total exports of goods from Burkina Faso at the end of June 2026 amounted to 4,643.7 billion CFA francs, representing an increase of 60% compared to the end of June 2025.
"This performance is essentially due to sales of raw gold, which increased by 1,790.8 billion CFA francs (+70.6%)," the document states.
