Illegal gold mining in Indonesia | DW Documentary

Tourists flock to the Indonesian island of Lombok for its beautiful beaches. But while foreigners snorkel and surf, the islanders are extracting gold from the depths of the earth. The precious metal is then dissolved using mercury, which poisons humans and the environment.
Indonesia is the largest producer of gold in Asia. Hundreds of thousands of people live from informal gold mining. The use of mercury in the process is ubiquitous. As a result, more and more children in this island nation are being born with deformities. The film documents the lives of individuals who are affected and accompanies people who are fighting for change.
Indonesia has committed itself to phasing out the use of mercury by 2025. The film explores the question of just how realistic this plan is, given the fact that hundreds of thousands of gold miners have few feasible alternatives when it comes to earning an income. Corruption in Indonesia also interferes with the implementation of more sustainable gold mining and trading practices.

instead of feel-good or pity documentaries and meaningless doctor work and measurements, wich leaad to no changes anyways..... why dont they teach indonesian gold miners how to extract gold without mercury.... The mercury-free gold extraction method uses borax in the process of gold smelting. Borax is used in the smelting process because it lowers the melting point of gold and other metals.

27:00 from seram island Indonesia, cinnabar is to make merkuri, illegal cinnabar mining to ilegall gold mining. Actually there another way to make gold without mercury, legal gold mining like PT Antam and Freeport Indonesia doesn't use merkuri but its a bit expensive. Indonesia can make merkuri because has many cinnabar ore in many island.

Cyanide method, they mentioned in the documentary. It is far safer than mercury and biodegrades. However,the cyanide method is more conducive to large scale mining. This is 1 of the challenges to convincing small scale miners to switch methods.

You ever been to Asia?

[@altingalanxhi7323]

Nothing illegal about mining gold, it seems, since the poor people are doing it in the open to earn a living on their own. More than illegality of the gold-mining activity in Lombok, the government should intervene to secure the safety of these poor people. It should provide education, health care (particularly to the mothers and their young), and even tools (masks, proper dumping sites, etc.), as compared to the provision of condoms, syringes for the prostitutes and drug users in the western world.

[@aarongouine-yb6yc]

I like your thinking

[@defekkto]

the government should provide a processing center so the miners simply sell the ore, less work for them so they can mine more ore and the processing center can do it safely

Good ideas mostly but it costs money, the government can't just send education or healthcare services straight away without stimulating the local economy in some way.

Then poverty is imposing human beings accepting every humbled condition, practicing it. This work is harmful for humans, the environment, livestock, and ecosystem....what a madness lifestyle 😮

[@drprofessorsoso208]

I understand the environmental damage being done by Mercury however It's a glaring reality that many individuals turn to illegal gold mining out of sheer necessity, as it often represents their only viable means of income in regions plagued by poverty and lack of economic opportunity. Condemning these miners without acknowledging the systemic factors that drive them to such desperate measures is not only unjust but also perpetuates the cycle of poverty and exploitation. When we advocate for crackdowns on illegal mining without offering viable alternatives for livelihoods, we're essentially turning a blind eye to the root causes of the issue. These miners aren't inherently criminals; they're individuals grappling with the harsh realities of a system that marginalizes and excludes them from legitimate economic opportunities. It's crucial to condemn not just the actions of illegal mining but also the systemic injustices that force people into such precarious situations. The focus should be on addressing the underlying socio-economic factors that push individuals into illegal mining in the first place. This entails challenging the structures of inequality and advocating for policies that promote inclusive development and sustainable livelihoods. Furthermore, those who perpetuate the narrative of illegal mining often benefit from the very system that exploits these marginalized communities. By condemning the miners without addressing the systemic issues at play, they effectively absolve themselves of responsibility and uphold a status quo that thrives on inequality and exploitation. Ultimately, true condemnation should be directed towards the systemic injustices that trap individuals in cycles of poverty and exploitation, rather than solely targeting those who are forced to engage in illegal activities as a means of survival. It's imperative that we advocate for systemic change and work towards creating a more equitable and just society where all individuals have access to dignified livelihoods and opportunities for prosperity. In our society, the pursuit of wealth often takes precedence over all other considerations. This relentless drive for financial gain is deeply ingrained within our economic system and collective mindset. Individuals feel compelled to prioritize monetary success above all else, as IT'S THE FRAMEWORK WE'VE CONSTRUCTED FOR OURSELVES. CONSEQUENTLY, many find themselves compelled to engage in occupations that pose significant risks to their well-being, such as mining. Within the mining industry, this dynamic is starkly evident. Despite the inherent dangers associated with mining work, individuals are left with little choice but to undertake these perilous jobs. The promise of financial reward, albeit disproportionately distributed, outweighs the risks for many. As a result, miners often endure hazardous conditions and labor-intensive work in pursuit of a livelihood. Yet, the benefits of this toil are seldom equitably distributed. While miners put their lives on the line, the lion's share of the wealth generated flows to a privileged few. Financial institutions, investors, and corporations profit immensely from the extraction and trade of precious resources like gold. This concentration of wealth exacerbates existing disparities, widening the gap between the affluent minority and the laboring majority. Our current economic system perpetuates a cycle where the pursuit of profit trumps all other considerations, leading to exploitation and inequality. Addressing this systemic issue requires a fundamental shift in societal values and structures, prioritizing equitable distribution of resources and fair labor practices. Only through collective action and advocacy can we hope to create a more just and sustainable economic paradigm. The relentless pursuit of profit frequently compels individuals to engage in precarious and often exploitative labor, such as mining, where risks to health and safety abound. Despite the peril, only a select few enjoy the lion's share of the rewards, perpetuating deep-seated disparities within our economic systems. These disparities underscore broader systemic inequalities that plague our societies, presenting formidable challenges to rectify. Addressing these entrenched issues demands multifaceted approaches, encompassing systemic reforms like the implementation of fair labor practices and wealth redistribution measures. However, achieving meaningful change also necessitates a fundamental shift in societal values towards principles of equity and sustainability. Recognizing the intrinsic worth of every individual and the imperative to safeguard the well-being of both people and the planet is paramount. Yet, navigating this terrain is complex, devoid of easy solutions. It requires concerted efforts to raise awareness and advocate for transformative policies and practices. Only through collective action and persistent advocacy can we hope to effectuate positive change, ushering in a more just and sustainable future for all.
