Philippines. 10th Aug, 2017. Hundreds of miners got trapped and killed inside this mining well when one of the contractor accidentally hit the waterline underneath the ground while they were digging high grade gold. The tragedy was never reached the media and owners of the mining well are still at large and never charge of any criminal liabilities. To this day, some poor villagers of Paracale, go in this place on low tide to do 'kabud' or small scale mining. Credit: Sherbien Dacalanio/Pacific Press/Alamy Live News
