  • Officials in Tigray claim they are missing out on revenue as gold resources are extracted without benefiting their region.
  • The interim president of Tigray reported that gold entering the federal government has not resulted in any financial returns for Tigray.
  • Environmental concerns have arisen, as mining operations reportedly expose residents to harmful chemicals like mercury and cyanide, causing health issues.
  • The Tigray Cabinet has called for a halt to gold mining activities due to both economic and environmental apprehensions.
