30,000 Chinese miners in the middle of a particular African territory ostensibly looking for gold? For over 10 years? Let me suggest that they are not looking but had found gold. As to whether the Chinese are doing any good in Africa, only time shall tell. So far as we know non-Chinese / non-Africans had certainly left Africa in a mess, and arguably Africans had done little for Africa. Although indubitably all three groups had done some good for me and mine, and I count blessings each day so that I can count again the next day. Let us watch and brief. In the mean time by the cited story we might conclude that China is exporting goods, people, capital, and ideas, and importing gold, to either counter inflation, or provide backstop to deflation, or whatever elmat chooses as truth, something about China returning to natural size or whatever else jetson figures, that China is collapsing. If Elmat and Jetson are correct we do not need to pay attention to China, as we do not need to ruminate over Greece, all to be smaller and of no substantive effect however it all goes. :0)

Very sad, a new wave of imperialist exploitation, before there where the Europeans now the Chinese. If I would had any influence I would force all profits to be invested back into Ghana, to rehabilitate the exploited land and force that many imported items should be made locally, like those water pipes in the video. At least Ghana will have a rudimentary industry developing. Strict environmental supervision, the damage inflicted to the land and rivers will take generations to recover. The Chinese miner are not treating their own land in China any better. Exporting very bad mining practices damaging the land and the rivers. All in all despicable.
