“There is Gold in dem hills” in Jamaica

According to a Canadian prospector that he is excited by the major finding and the prospect of even more.
Traces of gold and copper found by miners in their first drill hole in the Bellas Gate area of St Catherine have made Canadian mining company C3 Metals Limited hopeful that they have finally struck the sweet spot they have been after for nine years of searching in Jamaica.

Fingers crossed it's not fool's gold.

Yard discovering a mother load is a blessing.

Like oil in T&T and Guyana, it’s more like finders are keepers

Gold being discovered in Jamaica is not a blessing for Jamaica, if it is to be commercially exploited.

Jamaica should be focussing on the green gold!

No more mining please.

Bauxite has left some scars on the landscape.

I think he's referring to mining in general,

Also gold like diamonds etc would have a higher ratio of land disturbance simply because of the amount of material that has to be moved to get a little gold etc..

Personally I'm ashamed that in 2022 humans are still amazed by shiny objects .
