The Ministry of Mines confirmed the estimated death toll in a statement released Tuesday, expressing "deep regret" for the loss of life. The ministry urged miners and communities in the area to prioritize safety and adhere to established regulations.
A team of investigators is scheduled to arrive at the site on Thursday to conduct a thorough examination of the incident and determine the exact cause of the collapse.
Mali is a significant player in the global gold market, ranking among the world's top exporters. However, the artisanal mining sector, which employs millions of people, often operates under informal conditions and lacks proper safety protocols. This can lead to preventable tragedies like the one in Kangaba.
The high death toll in this incident underscores the need for improved safety standards and regulations in Mali's artisanal gold mining sector.
The government, mining companies, and international stakeholders must work together to ensure the safety and well-being of miners and communities in this vital industry. (ILKHA)
