One year ago, the Hands Off Jáchal Assembly took 71k signatures to Buenos Aires to call for judicial action to ensure justice for the repeated toxic spills at the Veladero mine. They are still fighting for that justice to be served. @jachalnosetoca jachalnosetoca.com/php/articulo.p…

Rather than opening poorly regulated lithium mines in Serbia, let's expand public transportation, recycle EV batteries, and improve mining standards to protect the environment, communities and workers. We can't mine our way to clean energy. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Policy expert Vuyisile Ncube from @EarthWorks says @Tesla is doing more than other automakers to respect the rights of Indigenous Peoples impacted by mining for EV batteries - but they need to go even further. #TeslaAGM

‘It’s a barbarity’: why are hundreds of families asking to be moved away from this Dominican Republic goldmine? I visited and heard what they had to say theguardian.com/global-develop…

Casilda Lima lives in the shadow of the El Llagal tailings impoundment, which stores waste from Barrick Gold's #PuebloViejo mine in the #DominicanRepublic. She was told in 2014 she had high levels of lead & heavy metals in her blood. Important read from @sajajohnson @guardian 👇🏽

“The Pueblo Viejo mine is one of the biggest in the world,” says Ramos. “We could be living in wonder, and well. However, there are people here who only eat once a day, because they have nothing.” theguardian.com/global-develop…

Reports are emerging of a significant #tailings failure in the Philippines. There are no reported casualties to date due to a successful preemptive evacuation. The scale of the collapse is not yet clear. #gsc.tab=0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">mindanews.com/top-stories/20…

#BarrickGold's AGM dodged questions and limited participation, revealing their lack of transparency. But advocates like JNST are fighting back, demanding accountability. Sign the petition to shut down the Veladero mine and demand justice! 🌍💧✊ 📎 bit.ly/44Hqhcz

Another reported killing near Barrick's North Mara #gold mine in #Tanzania this past weekend. See the distressing video below. Multiple accounts say that a local man was killed on school grounds by police in a mine-related security operation. A credible investigation is needed.

Video hii inathibitisha kwamba madai ya polisi kuhusu mauaji ya raia kwamba yanafanyika wakiwa wamevamia mgodi ni uongo. Huyu amepigwa risasi eneo la Shule. Serikali ya ccm inahusika na mauaji ya watu wetu , ndani ya wiki mbili huyu atakua kijana wa tatu. Bado hatujapata idadi ya waliojeruhiwa vibaya katika tukio hili. Mh rais @SuluhuSamia mambo haya yanaruhusiwa vipi kutokea chini ya utawala wako?

🆘🇧🇷⛈️ The amount of rain that has fallen on Rio Grande do Sul in the last four days is equivalent to three times the average for this time of year, according to the National Meteorological Institute (Inmet). The storms have caused 13 deaths and left 21 people missing.

"Mining Watch isn’t the only party claiming it was given short shrift at Barrick’s AGM. Earthworks' @MorrillJB wrote in an e-mail to The Globe and Mail that a question asked by community members from Argentina @jachalnosetoca that was critical of its Veladero mine ...was ignored"
Mark Kersten || @markkersten.bsky.social@MarkKersten

In a virtual meeting, @BarrickGold CEO was asked: "How many people have been shot and wounded or killed by police contracted to the mine this year alone, and when will you stop the killing and stop contracting police to guard this mine?” So, the moderator changed the question👇

At annual meeting, activist asks Barrick Gold's CEO how many Tanzanians were killed or wounded by police at a Barrick mine. But because it was a virtual meeting, a company rep was able to revise the question to a vague query about human rights. theglobeandmail.com/business/artic…

🚨⚠️ Recent accusations claim Barrick used the virtual setup to evade crucial questions from stakeholders. Shareholders and communities affected by Barrick's operations deserve answers! #AGMControversy 📎 Read more here (subscription required💰): ow.ly/B73q50RtGZu
