According to my understanding and after meeting with several legal attorneys and experts with various knowledgeable people like scientists etc.
The soil is very dangerous and toxic at high levels of different kinds.
TOXICITY ALIGNED WITH THE DIAMOND TAILINGS AS PER SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH:
1.Mycobacterium-Tuberculosis
2.Silicosis-Lung diseases
3.cancer
4.Hypertension-labp
5.Myocardial infection
6.Pheumonea
7.pheumoconiosis
8.Hearing loss
9.Asbestos- Aligned diseases due to asbestos as a by -product and exposure to diamond mining tailings.
POISONOUS CHEMICALS ASSOCIATED WITH DIAMOND MINING/TAILINGS
1.Chrome six- cancer
2.Asnic-synus and asthma
3.Boron
4.Berrium
5.Couphard
6.Nickle-small particles cause dry skin and blood pressure, a lot of children will develop asthma and brain damage.
7.Fellium
8.Salfix salt- brain damage for children.
9.Asbestos- developing cancer and all these effects will take long before they reflect or show up after 20 to 30 years to come from now.
This information was gathered from meetings with attorneys representing the victims from the community and I’m one of those victims, and some of the effects we see now arising like skin problems especially to younger children at the age of 10 years down wards.
