entry description
Young tribal men work in an illegal gold mine in the mountains of northern Luzon, Philippines. They cut down mountains randomly by open-pit mining, and in a labyrinthine pit like an ant's nest, unqualified people use dynamite. Heedless of danger or injury, they look for gold in the hot stuffy darkness.about the photographer
