sudans gold mine disaster kills at least 31 people
Only one individual has been found alive, while eight others remain unaccounted for. Four miners were killed in the same mine in January, according to a company official. He claimed authorities shut down the mine and put up security at the time, but they left a few months ago.
Artisanal miners account for over 80% of the country’s annual gold production. Due to the country’s poor infrastructure, artisanal gold mining is a dangerous occupation in Sudan. Sudan has recently experienced high inflation and has implemented difficult economic changes, such as reducing fuel and diesel subsidies and introducing a controlled currency float. It is also reeling from political turmoil following General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan‘s October 25 military takeover.
