September 8, 2013 | By Steen Ramsgaard GOLD FEVER - The risk of an ecological disaster and destruction of the landscape gets Romanians in their thousands to protest against plans for Europe's largest open gold mine in the Carpathian mountains.
Thousands of Romanians have for over a week demonstrating against plans to build Europe's largest open gold mine in the Carpathian mountains in western Romania. You want a Canadian mining company to extract 314 tons of gold and 1,500 tons of silver over the next 16 years, writes a variety of international media.
It is the Canadian mining company Gabriel nitrado Resources, which is behind the plans. The company has waited 14 years for a license to operate the mine. And after having elevated the Romanian State's share of the mining project from 20 to 25 per cent. and raise my tax from 4 to 6 per cent., the Romanian government now positive about the project. New jobs
For authorization talk that the gold reserves in the area believed to be worth $ 15 billion, which corresponds to about 85 billion kr. At the same time, efforts to construct the mine create 2,300 jobs, while the actual operation will provide 3,200 direct and indirect nitrado jobs when operation get started. And it's very tempting figure for one of the poorest regions in one of Europe's poorest countries.
Another argument against that mining will destroy the landscape. Three villages and four peaks in the Rosia Montana area will disappear from the face of the earth in relation to mining. Also traces of the old gold mines, which dates back to Roman times, will disappear.
Environmentalists and other opponents of the mining project - including the powerful money bin Soros Foundation - believes that the risk of environmental damage and ecological disaster is so great that the project is not worthwhile.
The view has been taken up in Romania, where most still remember what happened in 2000 Back then broke a dam at the Baia Mare mine together and it meant that very polluted and toxic water from mining operations - which include contained cyanide - streamed out. Toxic water ran into the Danube
The poison-containing water ran through neighboring countries Hungary and Serbia and the Danube. Several river systems were contaminated, and 10.000'er of fish were killed. nitrado The incident was the UN Environment Programme touted as one of the largest man-made environmental disasters in Europe.
