GOLD MINERS LEAVE THE VOLCANO MOUNTAIN

Gold miners transport the goods by car open when leaving the location of illegal gold mining in Gunung Botak area, Buru Island district, Maluku, Monday (16/11). The 250 hectares of Gunung Botak mine area is forced to be closed because it is currently experiencing severe environmental damage due to the use of mercury and cyanide over the thousands of miners who conduct illegal gold mining activities since 2011.
