    Dangerous Business Of Burning Aluminum Foil
    September 8, 2025, Dhaka, Bangladesh: Recycling workers endure hazardous conditions to extract reusable materials from aluminum foil. This process involves burning foil collected from industrial and domestic waste streams in makeshift chimneys. The practice, while providing a livelihood for the workers, poses significant risks to both human health and the environment due to toxic emissions and the absence of safety measures.

    Going for gold: coin marks hope of bringing Welsh mine, Clogau St David's, back from the dead.

    Clogau St David's, once Britain's richest goldmine, was considered exhausted. But miners are working there again.

    Clogau-St. DavidÕs gold mine in Gwynedd, north Wales, which has operated since 1854 and is renowned for producing the gold for the wedding wrings of generations of the royal family. Alba Mineral Resources took over the mine in 2018 and have used new technology to successfully mine new gold for the first time in over quarter of a century.
    To mark the milestone, Alba have minted three 1oz Tyn-y-Cornel gold coins which will be auctioned online on 3 April.

  • Fracking's return stirs fury in Pennsylvania town of Dimock whose water turned toxic.

    Fracking's return stirs fury in Pennsylvania town of Dimock whose water turned toxic.
    The small town of Dimock saw its water become brown, undrinkable, even flammable - and its residents are still feeling the effects.

    Fracking has burst back on to the national stage in the US presidential election contest for the must-win swing state of Pennsylvania. But for one town in this state that saw its water become mud-brown, undrinkable and even flammable 15 years ago, the spectre of fracking never went away.

    A small campaign sign for Kamala Harris is displayed on a home's lawn, while a "Trump Coming Soon" sign is visible on a barn in the background. Looming behind them is the A & M Hibbard oil and gas waste facility, operated by Coterra.

  • 'I do an illegal job, stealing': the women forced to scavenge in Bolivia's tin mines
    DUKAS_177262145_EYE
    'I do an illegal job, stealing': the women forced to scavenge in Bolivia's tin mines
    Some work underground, others pick over tailings; all are running huge risks. But in the town of Huanani, the mines are the only way to support a family.

    A growing number of women in Bolivia have resorted to mining on an informal basis to provide for their families. Some are widows whose husbands died in mining accidents or of related health problems; some are single mothers; others are wives of men who are alcoholics and subject them to domestic abuse. Some women bring their children with them to work to make more money.

    Women who cannot find work often resort to scavenging minerals discarded by miners.

  • Battle lines redrawn as Argentina's lithium mines ramp up to meet electric car demand.

    Battle lines redrawn as Argentina's lithium mines ramp up to meet electric car demand.
    Mining companies accused of colonial 'divide and rule' tactics in their pursuit of the precious metal that lies under the countryÕs salt flats.

    The Salinas Grandes is the largest salt flat in Argentina, a biodiverse ecosystem stretching 200 miles and sitting within the lithium triangle along with parts of Chile and Bolivia.

    Lithium, a silvery metal known as white gold, is an essential component of mobile phone and electric car batteries; its global demand is predicted to rise more than fortyfold by 2040. But its exploitation has also fuelled a moral debate, one that pits the green energy transition against the rights of local and Indigenous peoples.

    Battle lines redrawn as Argentina's lithium mines ramp up to meet electric car demand.
    Mining companies accused of colonial 'divide and rule' tactics in their pursuit of the precious metal that lies under the countryÕs salt flats.

    The Salinas Grandes is the largest salt flat in Argentina, a biodiverse ecosystem stretching 200 miles and sitting within the lithium triangle along with parts of Chile and Bolivia.

    Lithium, a silvery metal known as white gold, is an essential component of mobile phone and electric car batteries; its global demand is predicted to rise more than fortyfold by 2040. But its exploitation has also fuelled a moral debate, one that pits the green energy transition against the rights of local and Indigenous peoples.

    Anastasia Castillo grew up in the Lipan and feels her views, and the views of other villagers, have not been represented in the decision of the village to give access to Lition Energy.

    In the village of Rinconadillas, some residents say they are interested in opportunities offered by the mining companies, adding they did not want to have to solely rely on selling artisanal goods to tourists.

  • The modern-day gold diggers of California: 'It doesn't take much to catch the fever'

    The modern-day gold diggers of California: 'It doesn't take much to catch the fever'
    Floodwater from a rainy winter and a tropical storm have led to a mini gold rush up and down the state.

    California's gold rush lives on with small-scale prospectors and miners. The Gold Diggers club has 10 mining claims filed with the Bureau of Land Management, and it lists rules members must follow: no heavy equipment, for example, and any historic artifacts should remain untouched. A sense of old-school mining culture shines through; the names of the clubÕs claims range from "Wild Bill" to "Black Jack" to "Hot Diggity".

    How the west's wellness industry is driving Ethiopia's frankincense trees towards extinction
    As rich westerners fuel demand for the ancient fragrance, a lucrative race for the resin is killing the trees but leaving little of the trade's profit for those gathering it.

    Frankincense has been harvested in the Horn of Africa and across the Red Sea in the Arabian peninsula for millennia.

    Frankincense extraction, however, remains firmly rooted in its ancient past. Supply chains are murky and fragmented, often marked by exploitation and violence, and dominated by middlemen, who skim off most of the raw resin's value.
