"You kill and destroy (them) when you make it impossible ... to drink or eat."</p> <p>The recent operation followed campaign promises by President Luíz Inácio Lula da Silva, who took office in January, to stop illegal mining in indigenous Amazon territories.</p> <p>Along with deforestation, illegal mining soared during the previous far-right administration of Jair Bolsonaro.</p> <p>But if Lula is to fulfil his vow, activists, policymakers, and politicians say his government must expand its enforcement efforts to other hard-hit areas that have received less attention, and change policies that enable illegal gold mining.</p> <p>A 2013 law allowing gold to be sold with paper receipts based on the "good faith" of the seller, making it impossible to trace its origin, has been cited by researchers and prosecutors as one of the main causes of a boom in illegal gold mining.</p> <p>“This creates a perfect system of impunity for those who launder gold from indigenous areas,” said Sérgio Leitão, director of the Instituto Escolhas, a think-tank that has studied the illegal gold trade.</p> <h2>More areas under threat</h2> <p>The area of indigenous territories and other protected land affected by illegal small-scale mining in Brazil rose 525% between 2010 and 2021, to 19,606 hectares (48,447 acres), according to data published last year <a href="https://mapbiomas-br-site.s3.amazonaws.com/MapBiomas_Minera%C3%A7%C3%A3o_2022_30_09_1.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">by MapBiomas</a>, a network of research organisations and NGOs.</p> <p>MapBiomas found a steep increase during the administration of Bolsonaro, who not only rolled back environmental protections but failed to recognize any new indigenous territory, called for new mining in protected areas, and presented a bill to legalise such activity.</p> <p>When the 1992 operation took place in Yanomami territory, illegal mining affected just over 3,300 hectares (8,227 acres)across Brazil's indigenous areas, according to the research institution.</p></div><div class="ArticleText_text__9RYj1 "><p>While the plight of the Yanomami has been in the spotlight, MapBiomas data shows that other indigenous reservations have had larger areas hit by illegal small-scale mining - known as "garimpo" in Portuguese.</p> <p>For example, in 2021, compared to the 1,556 hectares (3,885 acres) occupied by illegal mining in Yanomami territory, the area affected in Munduruku territory was three times bigger, and in Kayapó territory more than seven times bigger.</p> <p>“You already have well-known cases of mercury poisoning, food insecurity,” said one Funai agent, referring to the Munduruku territory where they work.</p> <p>“The Munduruku ... have no protein, they cannot hunt or fish, and rely on industrialised produce from the city ... Everybody is sick,” added the agent, who spoke on condition of anonymity.</p> <p>Luisa Molina, an anthropologist at the NGO Instituto Socioambiental (<a href="https://acervo.socioambiental.org/sites/default/files/maps/2017-10/mapa_yanomami_port_baixa.pdf)" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ISA</a>), said the Brazilian government should also prioritize the Munduruku and Kayapó territories for enforcement to stop illegal mining.</p> <p>This is increasingly important, she noted, because miners are known to move from one hotspot to the next based on information about where there are better money-making prospects with less risk.</p> <p>“We are concerned there might be a rebound effect,” Molina said, referring to a possible rush of miners from Yanomami territory to reservations including those occupied by the Munduruku and Kayapó peoples.</p> <p>However, she stressed that the government should not turn its attention away from the Yanomami reserve.</p> <p>Activists are also concerned that more Brazilian miners may cross the border into Venezeula’s Alto Orinoco-Casiquiare Biosphere Reserve, where many Yanomami communities are located.</p> <p>A <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XvgM9U7VGq71xINeljuqwhExf5LpSk2l/view" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2022 report</a> by Venezuelan NGO SOS Orinoco said Brazilians had been mining in the region over the last decade.</p></div><div class="row g-0 ArticleSingleImage_wrapper__v8ERl"><div class="col-24"><div class="imageContainer ImageContainer_imageContainer__MSr4b " style="aspect-ratio:100 / 58"><img alt="An agent of the Brazilian Institute for the Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA), looks on as a plane and a house belonging to miners are destroyed during an operation conducted jointly within Brazil's National Indian Foundation (FUNAI) and Brazilian National Public Security Force against illegal mining in Yanomami indigenous land in Roraima state, Brazil February 6, 2023" loading="lazy" decoding="async" data-nimg="fill" class="nextImage ImageContainer_nextImage__4SuKE" style="position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent" sizes=" (max-width: 640px) 100vw, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 750px " srcSet="https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/400w/80q 400w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/500w/80q 500w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/600w/80q 600w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/700w/80q 700w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/800w/80q 800w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/900w/80q 900w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/1000w/80q 1000w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/1200w/80q 1200w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/1400w/80q 1400w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/1600w/80q 1600w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/1800w/80q 1800w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/2000w/80q 2000w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/2200w/80q 2200w, https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/2400w/80q 2400w" src="https://ddc514qh7t05d.cloudfront.net/dA/408af90bb8e9a8d2d4c43c07f1e10760/2400w/80q"/></div></div><div class="caption col-24 d-none d-lg-flex ArticleSingleImage_desc__RJQbE " data-cy="centered"><p>An agent of the Brazilian Institute for the Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA), looks on as a plane and a house belonging to miners are destroyed during an operation conducted jointly within Brazil's National Indian Foundation (FUNAI) and Brazilian National Public Security Force against illegal mining in Yanomami indigenous land in Roraima state, Brazil February 6, 2023.
