Jackarta Post: Nine people were killed by a landslide at an illegal gold mine in Sumatra, an Indonesian official said Sunday.
The accident happened Saturday in South Solok in West Sumatra province when a group of 12 people were digging for gold at an abandoned mine.
The area has several abandoned mines from the colonial era. MORE
Illegal mining in an abandoned mine…
I hope they’d already dug up enough gold to pay for nice funerals and wakes.

At first glance i thought it was a piece of chicken,i need new glasses…or maybe some chicken.
9 killed in illegal gold mining. and it’s estimated that 20, 000 people gold mine illegally……that means that a whole bunch of illegal gold miners are dead and we should shut down all gold mining….I hope it won’t affect my Pad Thai recipe because that would really Pho me out….Phuk N A….
I’m terribly sorry, but my Give-A-Shit meter seems to need a deep re-charging at the moment
sincere apologies … I’ll surely check back on this post later

This happens all the time in mines. Legal ones or otherwise, some abandoned with late prospectors.

But don’t tell the libs who do not know how to work with their hands.
They only expect ‘things’ to come there way, are to appear out of no where.
Huh. It does look like a drumstick.
Erik,
Perhaps trespassing?
Over here the real gold mining would involve suing the property owners to make all the relatives and especially the lawyers independently wealthy no matter what laws the perps broke!
GOLD, It’s to die for….
Was Parker Schnabel involved?
