People working in mine at night
Amazonas State, Brazil,: March 2007, Thousands are flocking to what most refer to as Brazil's new El Dorado. Rich deposits of gold are being mined and panned at huge cost to the environment in the ever dwindling Brazilian rain forest. Illuminated by petrol soaked wicks in sand, Mining continues throughout the night, generators noisily powering pumps which blast away the forest with water.
