The Cana­di­an Plan to Dig a Gold­mine in the Amazon

A small Cana­di­an firm wants to build the largest gold­mine in Brazil. But there’s no short­age of ques­tions, alle­ga­tions, inves­ti­ga­tions and legal bat­tles swirling around the pro­posed project. Are local sub­sis­tence min­ers mak­ing false claims to dri­ve Cana­di­an com­pe­ti­tion off their land?
