Guatemala's trash 'miners' risk lives to find gold
GUATEMALA CITY (AP) — A torrent of gray, toxic water spews from a drainage tunnel and surges along the ravine, tumbling along garbage that has fallen from the Guatemalan capital's main landfill 1,000 feet (300 meters) above.

Despite the foul odors, the danger of unstable piles of garbage collapsing and the chance for heavy rain to suddenly raise the water level, dozens of people are busily at work searching for jewelry and other metal scraps knocked loose from the trash.

They call the ravine the "mine," and refer to themselves as "miners."

Kind of reminds me of a hearing I had with the State in reguards to a dredging
permit I applied for. They had screwed up the legal description for the location
I had applied for. I pointed out to them that the water area that they had described
was listed by the State as having Fecal matter in the water. I advise them that I do NOT
work in water that has Fecal matter in it. And that is no B.S.
