Chart: Which countries are falling behind in gold mine production
India tops the global ranking with demand nearly 50 times that of its mined supply.
At least 31 people were killed in the collapse of a private gold mine in western Sudan, a mining official told Reuters on Tuesday.
“Thirty-one bodies were recovered after the collapse of a gold mine in En Nahud locality in West Kurdufan state. Only one person was rescued alive,” said Khaled Dahweya, director of government-owned Sudanese Mineral Resources Company.
