As of now, there are still 20 people who live around the toxic area with no public infrastructure or doctors or schools.
According to Where Cool Things Happen, the village was sacrificed so
that an artificial lake could take its place. The beautiful village then
served as a "catch-basin" where the contaminated water, full of cyanide
and other chemicals, flows in. All that remains today are some houses, a church tower and Geamana cemetery that is flooded with red water.
ZME Science cited that there might be a second Geamana disaster, as another mining project is being planned within the area.
