Gold miners bring fresh wave of suffering to Brazil’s Yanomami
Illegal miners are caught using jets of water to dig for gold, damaging the soil by the edge of the Couto de Magalhaes river, during an operation by members of the Special Inspection Group from the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA) against illegal mining in Yanomami Indigenous land, Roraima state, Brazil, December 3, 2023.
