• No, they mine for it, then sell it
• No, Gold is a non-renewable resource
• Ethiopians export their gold to the world market. Places in Egypt, and Australia. It does not harm anyone, but I do not think Ethiopia is making as much money as the could on these exports.
• The gold miners make enough money to make a living, but I think since they are mining for such a valuable mineral, they should be earning more

• This resource is mined and then sold, not used by the country.
• It isn’t sustainable because diamonds take a very long time to be made, and the number being taken makes in unsustainable.
• Bigger companies often consume them and sell it to other wealthier countries.
• Some people come into harm due to the bad conditions when mining and finding them. Several conflicts have started leaving thousands dead due to this resource.
• Workers don’t get paid enough at $12 a week. Children often have to come in and work because the families need more income to survive. ]]> 2021-01-25 16:07:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jonathon_glaub/az4j2qrw9r7o/wish/1122654278 Shaylee block 3 https://padlet.com/jonathon_glaub/az4j2qrw9r7o/wish/1122654593 County:chad
