"I have seen the devastation, conflict and injustice caused by drilling for the black gold. Like many in the Delta State, I feel only a few reap the benefits of the resource."

DE MONEY
The artisanal gold mining activities in Ghana are on the increase as thousands of jobless youths engage in this act known locally as Galamsey, defying the dangers to their health and causing serious environmental damage like land degradation, water pollution, erosion of agricultural site and deforestation while in search of precious Gold known locally as "THE MONEY". The improper use and handling of mercury by miners to extract gold from the fine sand lead to potential health hazards among miners and inhabitants of some of the gold rich communities in Ghana. Some have died while doing Galamsey but some of the youths will tell you it's all by survival.
