Mercury is the least of those guys problems. The smoke and dust from the furnaces is far more damaging; Constant inhalation of both can lead to emphysema, COPD, black lung, silicosis and eventually cancer. Heavy metal poisoning by mercury is going to cause neurological problems such as decreased IQ, motor skill impairment (tremors, uncontrolled movement, etc.) But the former problem is going to get them far quicker than the latter.
Better than starvation. Capitalism afforded the luxury of worker safety measures. He should reinvest what he can into improving the safety of the process or getting better machinery for smelting so that he can make the work more efficient. Safety will improve naturally, but i am happy for them, they are content doing the hard work. Long life is meaningless if it is spent pointlessly
He is also providing jobs to the barely educated. I love how the same people criticizing him would be patting him on the back if someone was doing the same thing some were else were the health standards were higher and enforced.
Why is it disgusting? I've told people to wipe their hands on my shirt before. If he didn't ask and just did it like the guy was a shop towel, then I might be more inclined to view him with less respect.
I found it shocking. U have what is essentially slaves producing actual gold n u can't afford to even give them safety equipment or invest in sinks ext for clean. Absolutely no need to degrade his staff like that.
Labor in India is dirt cheap. Sometimes as cheap as a dollar a week. They work 6-8 hours a day. No medical, no comp-offs, no insurance. Compared to that gold nugget in the end is 500 times profit. Sometimes more if the nugget is big. Too huge a population and too few jobs don't give these workers more choice. Its quite sad when you have a population of over a billion and a half.
Adriano Vergara Birth control pills and condoms will be more expensive then their income... lol. plus the notion in these part of India is that more kids mean more income when they get old.
I love all the comments about the working conditions and safety concerns etc. etc....like....haha y'all have no fucking clue how rich and privileged we are in the 1st world. Many people around the world just don't have an option for the "right equipment" to perform dangerous jobs, or have the workers rights to not let their boss treat them like shit, and YES for an entire village to work for days to get about $1000 worth of gold it is worth it to them, kid. You say "not worth it" because your perception is totally skewed and you don't understand hardship.
its not hardship its just a stupid and harmfull art of work....in the way i do not give a single fuck about my workers and not a single cent for their safety...yoiu didnt know that they in india hav a very bad ass kind of fascism?....no one givs a shit about lower castes..not evem the members of them....they just getting exploitet.....its not a luxus how we hav it here in 1st world...it should be a normal way of working in every world.
I am familiar with a very similar process. Unlike this, we use fume scrubbers and bag houses to control the fumes and collect the lead.I believe they are using lead instead of mercury as he said.It is the oldest methods of getting prcious metals. Still very hazardous, as there is no fume control mechanism in place.
have they ever heard of a fucking retort it recovers all the mercury hell they are doing the use of mercury all wrong in the first place . it should be resting on a negatively charged copper plate in the mud table that would get close to 99% then into retort leaving the gold no silver behind .
So many people complaining that this is slave labour (it probably is) and the boss is a jackass (he is) and the working conditions are crap (they are). But if you or your family have ever bought gold then you have probably contributed to something similar. How many people will watch this video and then forget about it the next time they see a shiny necklace in the jewelry store?
May be you are right. May be absolutely right. But have you thought if they have any other option? Not every country might be blessed with socio-economic status as yours. Imagine about hygiene if you are stranded in some desert? Would you find soaps and disinfectants there? Be able to wash your clothes there? Water potability? Maybe water available will be highly contaminated with arsenic and mercury?? What will you do? Try to survive or care about hygiene and health? And then imagine how you'd feel if someone says that you are living in shitty condition and so you are shit. Really????
need to remember this is 24k, not 14 or 10k. it's one of the weakest golds. so in some way it's not the biggest money. u nvr know how rich they are either. they dont need a 60in hdtv lol. u ever see the southpark ep about recycled gold?
+Thisisbb1 are you fking dumb? the price of gold depends on its purity not the hardness..24K is the purest form of gold while the others such as 18 or 14 or 10K which the other countries prefer is made of impurities or buffers..india prefers 24K
they are loosing a lot of the gold they have also there is a tool that will process a full bag like that in just a minute and its almost 90 percent recovery rate . it uses no power just water flowing through a cone shaped concentrator and would also remove most of those workers that's why they do not use it also as many from what I have seen are only doing it to make jobs for people .
you see gold is well everywhere almost it is very unlikely anybody outside their country ever really gets to see the gold they produce . so we were lucky to even see their primitive methods here but most the gold we buy comes from large scale mining corporations nothing like this .
This lovely music, the genes altered, cancer cells stimulated to the rhythm of the song, life span shortened to the half, rich people everywhere full of joy. Fantastic!!!
u think that is bad, ever heard of a blood diamond? and sadly a lot of people wear them just because of the term "diamond" most dont think of how it was found and it's journey to a girl's finger or so
Why would you assume that she hasn't? Leonardo DiCaprio was in a movie named after them. Most people have heard of that. I would guess that mining for other jewelry and electronics hurts more people around the world.
+Thisisbb1 I am a diamond merchant, based out of SF, blood diamonds are not that common anymore, mostly Zimbabwe....plus there is a Kimberly certificate for us in the trade to assure its origin. A lot of diamonds come from Canada, Russia, and Australia. African diamonds are obviously a good chunk of the market but not what it used to be.
+Provo- Go Yeah, so does every employment across the globe, if you don't make money, you'll starve. Unless if you live in the jungle and can hunt and manage clean water yourself. Besides, knowing these third world countries, I bet the higher ranking and regular employee payment gap is not as big as those company in first world country.
He's probably paying them close to nothing for all that work. And he still haves the audacity to cleanse hands on his workers shirt. I know he's already dirty at least some them some respect after all the hard work they do for you. I would of burned his hands off.
So is apple, google, Microsoft and on and on and on. Difference is they are more sophisticated with their lies and thieving. iPhone has 50 to 60% profit margin, because the Chinese are willing to work themselves to death to build them. World is built on the suffering of these men willing to slave themselves, yes most of them are men.
isnt that everyone? u get a small ring, it's not exactly 10 bucks lol. but 200 or so pending the gold quality and such. just like a diamond, so small YET not small in value lol
India is now 3rd fastest growing country in the world. These are poor villagers. Indian brain is the best brain in the world. CEO of Google, master visa card and many more.
everyone in the comment complaining about the harsh conditions these workers face but they forgot that they can withdraw from work if they like to but they won't find money to eat so that guy is offering them a chance for work and you can see yourself that what they make is not something big so he can offer them better conditions he barely has money to pay them and they seem happy to do that since no body forced them to
ahhh. just add mercury, glass...cancer, more cancer and a little bit of other cancers. Our workers love it.
😦

Working? You're not working look at your body and the workers body.

it's disgusting
Why is it disgusting? I've told people to wipe their hands on my shirt before. If he didn't ask and just did it like the guy was a shop towel, then I might be more inclined to view him with less respect.
The general attitude towards his workers is condescending at best never mind the wiping part
I found it shocking. U have what is essentially slaves producing actual gold n u can't afford to even give them safety equipment or invest in sinks ext for clean. Absolutely no need to degrade his staff like that.
because he is a boss.

i prefer silver than gold as jewerely
Probably because you can't afford it. Not hating on you but that's probably the truth
@@mightymouse5029 thats literally hating
@@davidchang5265 no it's not I'm just saying people who prefer silver usually say they like it more because they have never wore gold before
@@mightymouse5029 sorry but that was hilarious 😂😂😂
I also prefer silver, gold makes men look like fat hairy pigs, specifically gold *rings* and *necklaces*. no offense to anyone who wears gold.
The song makes it seem so elegant and enjoyable I fucking thought I was in Willy Wonka's factory

Gold doesn't mean anything. Awesome video. I love the characters. I wish we could hang out. But gold doesn't mean anything.
they way they talk about adding some mercury like its no big deal is quite devastating to watch...
even worse is how they talk about burning it off without any respirator masks
have they ever heard of a fucking retort it recovers all the mercury hell they are doing the use of mercury all wrong in the first place . it should be resting on a negatively charged copper plate in the mud table that would get close to 99% then into retort leaving the gold no silver behind .
I wonder if they recover the silver.
gold is used in electronics that's why is still so valuable
