More than 10,000 illegal miner are believed to be working on
AngloGold Ashanti Obuasi and Amansie Central district concession, though
legally any individual or group other than AngloGold Ashanti
prospecting, exploring, mining and processing gold is engaged in illegal
activity.
While the Chinese and other foreign illegal miners with sophiscated
pieces of equipment are working destructively in river beds with deadly
chemicals such as mercury, their Ghanaian counterparts are using hard
rock explosives on the core areas of the Obuasi operation.
