A group of people who are upset with the use of cyanide in gold mining activities in Talodi locality in South Kordofan burned buildings of a factory and vehicles on Saturday.
A witness told Radio Dabanga that the protesters burned two vehicles and three loaders, besides a commercial centre on the premises of the gold extraction company in Talodi.
Cyanide causes harm to the environment and may have an impact on human beings and animals. According the committee for environmental advocacy, companies which allegedly also use cyanide in the gold extraction process have increased their activities in several parts of South Kordofan.
