What an entertaining documentary. Interesting, educational but not dry and boring. I loved the music and the people. And the WuWu dance was epic !! This documentary makes one appreciate the rarity and value of a beautiful gemstone. Mother Earth does not give up her treasures easily !!!
Very informative Video. You have done a great job by visiting the mine areas and associated areas of mining, the weather, the security risks, the rural area risks etc.
What a lot of heart break and hard work so greasy people can make money so someone can wear a stone on there finger and look at the devastation all around them on the land
The mine owners are providing work to people. In other words they are generating employment opportunities. Why are you discouraging them. Salary slab may be prevailing according to local demand and supply of labour as per local conditions of area.
Hi, I tend to agree although it was a decade ago and must be updated. Please notice that there is diversity in payments. 1. Work on your own and share the risk of finding nothing and than if you find offer it to a agent 2. get payed anyway, not worry about anything on the risk of finding nothing 3. Get the machines leased and work and auction every day your finding on the spot as group 4. The hand labour is abandoned and replaced by use of heavy equipment. The workers are sometimes choosing between these options. It is amazing that they sometime choose version 2 with abviously very low pay that seems so unjust to us (but they choose sometimes this version because oflow living costs and have sometimes very nice simple and happy living conditions in the village that is priceless). The movie shows this realities and we did not judge the situation but our viewers can do so of course.

Замечательное видео!🤗 Большое спасибо авторам! Жаль, что выложили только два года назад, информация в фильме устарела на пятнадцать лет.

I want to get access to a mining company in Madagascar, it is very necessary
Brilliant video. Great stories of unique human lives.
Very interesting, people can see how difficult it is to mine those stones and how special each gem is.
Very interesting, team work mine, thx for sharing...😊
Swiss Bank was nickname of Gerard, one of first Malagasy employing miners in Ilakaka

What? Only 200pcs of >10ct blue sapphire rough per year? Really????? I wonder if the number is much higher these day
Probably not. Sapphires over 10 carats are extremely rarely.
Mantap
parabens é muito trabalho
Nice video I Have a 18 ct ruby stone
NİCE VİDEO
the sri lanka shappier fron there too
ကျောက်မျက်တွေကိုအမှန်တကယ်ချစ်မြတ်နိုးသောရတနာပညာရှင်ပါဘဲတူးဖော်တဲ့နေရာတွေအထိစူးစမ်းတတ်သူပါကြည့်ရူရတဲ့အတွက်ကျေးဇူးတင်ပါတယ်
I'm wondering how they will know if a gem is found anyone can easily hide it for themselves
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Is there anyone who can connect me to a mining company? It is very necessary
Nice star sapphire
Damn it’d be cheaper to fly to Madagascar… find/buy the rough. Come home get it cut. Holy cow $50 for the lot of those 😍

Kasian Karena SDM mereka terbatas padahal Mereka bisa nambang sendiri Dan diolahnya menjadi permata cantik sprt pribumi Kalimantan Selatan

I actually went to antananarivo and found a jeweller, he sold be a big sapphire and it turned out to be fake, hurray

13.50 usd for all those. The dealers.. police...mine boses are all ripping them off.. the be selling ONE stone for 5k usd.
just plant trees back in these holes, when finishing.
These guys could come to America to make Wu Wu dance to make some money.
It disgusts me that the diggers are paid so little.
