Cameroon: authorities close 30 gold mines for particular reason

Cameroonian authorities sealed off at least 30 gold mines in the country due to the death of more than 30 young miners in landslides in August.

In this period of heavy rainfall in Cameroon, the risk of landslides is high.

This is what happened a few weeks ago with the landslide that caused the death of 30 people working in a gold mine.

In response to this situation, the government decided to seal off at least 30 gold mines throughout the country.
