South Africa: Trapped Illegal Miners at Stilfontein Claim Turning to Cannibalism | Firstpost Africa

South Africa is fighting an underground war against gangs and criminals who control its abandoned mines. For weeks now, several illegal miners have been trapped inside a gold mine in the country’s northwest. The authorities have cut off their food and water supplies to force them out and make arrests. But officials now face a grave dilemma. They’ve received a chilling letter from the miners saying that amid food shortage, many of them have turned to cannibalism. They have urged authorities to send them food supplies. Watch this video for all the details about South Africa’s mining industry crisis. Watch the video to learn more.

  1. Thank you for posting! Hoping for some advice: My Safe Wallet has some Tether, and I know the backup phrase: clean party soccer advance audit clean evil finish -tonight involve whip -action-. How can I handle sending them to my Binance account?

  2. 1900 illegal miners are said to have emerged from the mine. Only 26 are South Africans.

    Immigrants come to S.A 🇿🇦 illegally & get involved in crimes. And we must entertain their demands?

    I knew the media would paint them as victims and S.A 🇿🇦 as the villan.

    They had to surrender or starve. They chose to starve….

  3. Shame on the government. They intentionally trapped them and ropes were cut and whether illegal or not, gangs don’t operate abandoned mines. So what?! The poor workers, quit calling them illegal. They were workers. Dangerous job so that’s desperate. I don’t care to learn the term zamazama. Who cares?! Stop reporting and making them look bad!!! Poor people and the government does nothing! Shame on them! Why didn’t they seal it off and guard it, if so concerned!! It was already drained of gold. These are small hard to excavate parts. God help them, please ❤😢🙏🏻✝️☮️

  4. Appreciate it for sharing! Looking for advice: My Crypto Wallet contains some TRX 20 USDT, and I have the seedphrase: clean party soccer advance audit clean evil finish -tonight involve whip -action-. What’s the best way to go about moving them to Coinbase Exchange?

  5. Many thanks for providing this! Seeking suggestions, Does this wallet have assets? seed phrase 【(clean) (party) (soccer) (advance) (audit) (clean) (evil) (finish) (tonight) (involve) (whip) (action)】. Verify this in your OKX, appreciate it.

  6. The SA Government should NOT be aiding them…. This kind of illegal mining could NEVER happen in any other country in the world…. Why did they think it’s possible in South Africa?! They need to be sent back to where they came from. If they “ were “ allowed to mine in old mines, where is their supporting documents to support prove such employment/permissions??!!

  7. They fight poverty by risking life in illegal mining and authorities cut off its food supplies and water ,which is against all laws of humanity,,South Africa must be brought to the I C C,

  8. I hope the day will come, and come soon , when Africans will no longer have to scratch for the crumbs that fall from their own tables, but that they will sit at the tables and dine.
