美联社摄影记者迪乌多内·迪罗勒今年驻扎在刚果东部，用镜头记录了当地手工金矿开采的现状1。他拍摄的一组照片展现了矿工在泥水中劳作的场景，其中包括儿童和妇女1。这些影像揭示了手工采矿活动所带来的人道主义、经济和环境问题1。
采矿地区正经历埃博拉疫情爆发，传播速度前所未有1。照片中可见，用于洗矿的水已被污染1。值得注意的是，手工采矿在法律上被禁止使用儿童劳动力，但这一现象仍然存在1。迪罗勒的摄影项目旨在记录流动采矿人群在疫情期间的生存状况及其对环境的影响1。
AP News photographer Dieudonne Dierolé has captured images revealing the stark realities of artisanal gold mining in eastern Congo, documenting hundreds of miners—including children and women—working in muddy water in the Ituri-Benie region 1. The photographic project, undertaken as Dierolé began his assignment covering the region for AP this year, aims to expose the humanitarian, economic, and environmental dimensions of the mining operations 1.
The images underscore multiple crises unfolding simultaneously in the area 1. Water used in the mining process is contaminated, posing direct health risks to workers and surrounding communities 1. The work involves illegal child labor, despite laws prohibiting the employment of minors in artisanal mining operations 1. The documentation comes during an unprecedented Ebola outbreak spreading through the region, compounding the already precarious conditions faced by the mobile mining populations 1.
