According to Mizzima, scores of people had been killed in a landslide while searching for gold in the dumping site of jade mining companies at Hmawsizar jade mine in Phakant, Myitkyinar district, Kachin State, northern Burma. Landslides frequently kill people in these remote jade and gold mines, but the news of these tragic deaths rarely reach the outside world.
