Mining and Amerindians in Guyana : final report of the APA/NSI project on "Exploring Indigenous Perspective on Consultation and Engagement within the Mining Sector in Latin America and the Caribbean"
2002
Institutional controls on mining are weak. This report results from a participatory study carried out to assess mining impacts and to develop proposals for more effective Amerindian engagement with the mining sector. The consultation process comprised two national workshops of a National Indigenous Advisory Committee, four regional consultations in Amerindian communities, a field visit to mine sites in the Matthew’s Ridge region, interviews with key stakeholder groups and Government officials, and a literature review. Brazilian miners and syndicates are centrally involved in small, medium and large-scale mining ventures. There is much illegal traffic across the frontier. The prostitution of Amerindian women is rife in mining camps and rapes are widely reported.
