Tanzania: Advocacy group appeals to Shanta Gold to compensate locals whose farms were destroyed by its operations; company responds

HakiMadini, a local advocacy group that defends the rights of communities living around mining areas, recently appealed to Shanta Gold to compensate farmers whose land was destroyed by the company's representatives during exploration. The farmers are yet to be compensated. [also provided: Shanta Gold's response to HakiMadini]

[The land Shanta Gold is referring to is different from the one that HakiMadini petitioned about. HakiMadini is preparing a rejoinder with the community]
