Abstract
Several lives are lost every month in mining accidents in Namayingo District as an unregulated gold rush draws unemployed youth into unsafe pits. District officials attribute the deaths to crude mining methods, weak enforcement, and sudden shifting “gold rushes” that push miners into deep, unstable tunnels prone to collapse, suffocation, and drowning.
