RE Daowa environmental damage

Shazhen located in the southernmost tip of Guiping City, about 75 km from Guiping City, adjacent to Yulin Xingyexian, Beiliufu other counties, known as the "eight mountains of water a sub-field," said. Dense mountains, contains a variety of minerals, one of which is rare.

Mr. Wu is on the shazhen Okimura people, for the illegal mining of rare earth endanger the lives of the villagers, who have deep experience.

Wu said that in the mountains on a Okimura called "pine red", from the beginning of October 2014, there will be a group of outsiders to the mountains Daowa rare. For a time, hill, mountain, foothills, over the group's hideout illegal mining. Although the villagers knew the illegal mining of rare earth will bring incalculable environmental issues, but because more young migrant village, the villagers left behind this helpless, "We had complaints from the relevant departments, but seen to respond."

During the Spring Festival, the majority of migrant workers return Okimura New Year in the village, the village during the two days of the first lunar month this year to facilitate, organize mountain villagers, who want to stop illegal mining continued illegal poaching, but the effect is not obvious. Three days (February 21) the same day, villagers found the edge of the river flowing through the village, part of the fish bellies phenomenon occurs, and the water turns dark green, causing the villagers panic.

"It continues, future generations would destroy habitat." Lee said the villagers Okimura ,, the villagers again on February 21 in the evening to point to stop illegal mining of rare earth. Perhaps prior to smell the wind, illegal mining of rare earth who ran his shirt, the villagers have not yet part of the scene and seized a ledger away, documents, etc., and agricultural vehicles and other tools with 94 packages weighing about 5 tons of rare earth finished back to the village sealed.

It is understood that, "pine red" illegal poaching point of the mountain, not only on water quality Okimura had an impact on the surrounding villages such as balls land on the country village villages also suffer. Because of the hill there is all kinds of chemicals in large quantities, the local villagers fear after rain, these chemicals will be leakage. For this reason, some of the villagers went to the local government in the hope that the government in a timely manner to resolve the problems.

The hills around the illegal mining of holes

Under the guidance of the local villagers, reporters aboard a motorcycle, traveling along the inside of the village for about 20 minutes, then to the "pine red" foothills. Up along the foothills of less than 3 kilometers, will have a point of illegal mining. Although this point has been shut down, but the reporter from the scene was still able to smell a faint smell of ammonia, not far away, a hundred bags of ammonium bicarbonate, ammonium chloride and other items. According to villagers, this point, there are nearly ten throughout the hills, in front of these chemicals, mainly used for washing, refining rare earth, and the wastewater produced is not treated it out emissions.

Go to the top of the hill in the way the reporter noted, the mountain sides, every few meters there a diameter of about 10 cm hole, small hole edge is provided with a tap and a funnel, connect each hole faucet pipes were used to artificially grass cover on top.

One villager, this is an illegal mining by illegal mining of rare earth, called holes irrigation method. Illegal mining in the mountains who first played for the size of the hole, and then use chemicals watering agent, at the bottom of the mountain and then dig a hole two or three months after the reaction and erosion, rare earth would cave beneath the mountain from come up. Excavators irrigation method complicated than soil excavation method, and the method of cost than the latter transported to the open space with a refining agent to be higher, but more subtle, not easy to be found.

Local villagers said that since the illegal mining point since illegal poaching, several trips every day shipped out from the village of rare earth products, according to the current price of a tonne of finished rare earth is 20 million calculations, these months were illegal mining reap profits incalculable.
