COLOMBIA-ILLEGAL-MINING-GOLD
Informal miners look for gold in the Nechi river in El Bagre municipality, Antioquia department, Colombia on March 23, 2023. - The giant skeletons of burnt and dismantled gold dredgers litter the rivers of northwest Colombia, where the government is waging a full-out war on illegal mining. Nicknamed "dragons" by locals, the massive machines used to suck gold from river beds are blamed for destroying the environment and financing organized crime. But their dismantling in a massive army operation has been met with hostility by communities who depend on mining for their daily survival.
