Gold rocks are extracted from underground and then crushed into powder before it is transported into swamps where it is filtered using a crude method known as Angaria. It is a netted tray where the powder is put and water poured. As the soil sinks, gold particles remain on top. The miners then use mercury to attract gold that sinks through with the soil.
