Re: Myanmar: Jade Mine Disaster
sad;
but these accidents happen to often as the mines are Chinese owned and safety is not a big concern

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/23/worl ... -mine.html...Landslides are common in the jade mining area and can claim 100 or more lives at a time. Dozens were swept away by a landslide in Hpakant last year, and at least 120 were buried in 2015 after the collapse of a mound of tailings, a mudlike waste byproduct of mining.
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

And the whole area is a military zone; I have always heard that a lot more accidents happen there than admitted to by the government.
