Watched this as an African and I felt a pierce in my heart. The documentary is beautiful, that is not a doubt. But it sheds so much information on how Africa is so rich, yet it benefits the least from all its resources. Half of this documentary is in Africa. Some of the places that had (in the past) gold e.g San Francisco are so developed right now, but all gold-rich sources in Africa are still struggling to even have power, healthcare, and education. Colonialists taught us so many things like religion, social interaction, their culture, but not good governance; and Africa is bleeding and being milked of all its minerals and resources for way less than it deserves. The South African gold mined in the 80's are probably sitting in colonial vaults right now, backing their economy. I couldn't help but feel sorry for our motherland. An informative and eye-opening film Idris.

Funnily enough, they used to be quite rich too). Should've given us our independence by your logic. It would've been better considering the industrial output of the Asante region

My oldest maternal uncle was originally a self taught uranium miner. He patented the first under water shotgun for sharks & loved the oceans & Earth. He established a sea turtle preserve in Belize many years ago. He became the chief environmental engineer of Fluor. He worked with mining & power plant construction worldwide. He also held patents on gold extraction & mining processes. We have a picture of him holding an enourmous block of gold weighing 80 pounds. He is straining while grinning ear to ear. We still extract gold & diamonds from several sources using a variety of techniques. It's thrilling & fun.

Because he doesn't want to look like a complete sellout. This is basically propaganda paid for by interest groups in the mining sector. Notice how they walked right past examining the environmental impact of mining, straight to all the socially responsible fixes they're implementing. I mean think of how broad they went with this, just covering things that are vaguely related to gold, barley even a premise @@sotokijiji2759

Great documentary! I was quite disappointed about not going deeper on how some of these gold mines has caused great damage to our environment. Especially in Ghana 🇬🇭 where illegal miners, embarked by some government officials and even some traditional rulers destroying our water bodies therefore making unsafe for consumption and environmental degradation . I believe other African countries are also facing similar problems.

Sooo, i watched all of the film interpretations of rhe story and love them all in their own regard. What is interesting is that,especially on this one is, that a lot of people behave like the aliens in the story, 100% disregarding any other impression than their very own limited personal view,compelety revitalizing the aliens prejudice and speciesm that the whole story is about. To them, this scenic interpretation is simply "meat". Awesome .

It was very good, but could have been better with more information on what gold really is and how it is formed, rather than proselytizing for Evolution and Climate Alarmism.
