Cost of Every Breath

Ghana

Years of breathing silica dust deep inside Ghana's gold mines have left this miner's body profoundly weakened. Prolonged exposure to silica can cause silicosis, an incurable lung disease that dramatically increases the risk of tuberculosis and other fatal respiratory illnesses. For countless miners working under exploitative conditions, the pursuit of gold comes at the cost of their health, their strength, and often, their lives.
