USGS releases first study to assess global earthquake risk to mineral supplies
Earthquakes have the potential to substantially affect mining operations, leading to supply chain disruptions that adversely affect the global economy.
Police in Chennai have arrested a 25 year-old woman who sold fake gold coins to a number of women in the city.
Her scam came to an end when another woman recognized her from a fake coin sale four months earlier.
The woman, named Poongodi, reportedly arrived in Chennai from Andhra Pradesh days ago with a group of associates. The others are still on the loose.
Poongodi has admitted to cheating people all over Chennai. She told police that she obtained the coins from a gang leader in Andhra Pradesh.
The coins were sold for the equivalent of between $80-100.
