Industry accounts for 24.5% of GDP (35.3% in the third quarter of 2018 according to Ghana Statistical Service). It is dominated by mining, lumbering, light manufacturing, aluminum smelting, food processing, cement production, small commercial ship building and petroleum. Gold, bauxite and manganese mining plays a key role thanks to the country's rich subsoil resources. Rich bauxite reserves coupled with high hydro stocks provide strong potential for aluminum smelting. Ghana also has a relatively sophisticated automotive industry and exports cars to other parts of Africa.
