The BBC refers to claims by the Rosia Montana Gold Corporation that the open cast gold mine could generate USD 19 billion for the Romanian economy and create many new jobs. But the other side of the argument is also presented, BBC’s Crossing Continents programme interviewed local resident Sorin Jorca, “If this project starts, life is over for me, I would lose my house, the graves of my parents, the church, and the heritage that belongs to all of us. The mining industry is very dirty, they will use tonnes of dynamite each day. Think of the noise, the toxicity – life here is going to be impossible,” said Sorin Jorca, quoted by the BBC.
