A major barrier to the transition away from mercury use in artisanal gold mining is the sector's typical lack of formalization. 📺 Discover how @Planetgoldgc 🇬🇳 aims to test Landscape Approaches to support #ASGM formalization, reduce conflict, and protect natural resources.

In Insiza District, Hassali is quietly challenging long-held beliefs simply by working as a miner. Across 🇿🇼, mining is treated as a man’s world. Women often face cultural myths, land barriers, and limits on mineral rights that shut them out and hold the sector back.🧵
