People near gold mines test positive for cyanide

Tests on inhabitants of the Dominican Republic towns of La Laguna, El Naranjo, La Piñita and La Cerca near Cotuí (central) found high levels of cyanide and heavy metals, from the area of the mining companies Barrick Gold and Enviro Gold.
A report released Monday by investigative journalist Nuria Piera says lab results show that several people who live in Las Lagunas and La Cerca have high levels of cyanide and other toxins in their urine and blood.
