GUINEA GOVT: AT LEAST 18 PEOPLE WERE KILLED IN GOLD MINE COLLAPSE

Monday’s accident is the latest in a series of such incidents at artisanal mines
in the country.

At least 18 people have been killed as an informal gold mine collapsed in
western Guinea, a government spokesman has said.

According to Ousmane Gaoual Diallo who spoke to the press on Thursday, the
accident took place Monday in Gaoual, about 386km (240 miles) from the capital
Conakry. In recent months, miners have flocked there in search of gold to pan.

“For the moment, 18 bodies have been extracted and we are not finished yet.
Rescue operations continue,”  Diallo told reporters.

Accidents are common at so-called artisanal mines across West Africa, which
operate without much oversight or regulation.



Last May, at least 15 people were killed in a similar incident at an artisanal
gold mine in the northeastern region of Siguiri. At least 17 clandestine miners
were also killed in a landslide in February 2019 and another dozen nine months
later.
