Slaves working mines for diamonds and other stones?
I know that a lot of diamonds come from mines that are being worked by slaves. But I have a few questions
1-What other precious stones are being sold through the exploding of slaves? (rubies, sapphires, onix, emeralds, pearls, amethyst, gold, silver, titanium, etc, etc)
2- what is the PRICE difference between titanium, gold and silver?
3-can anyone refer me to a website with more information about this issue?.
Thanks!
"Although outlawed in nearly all countries, forms of slavery still exist.[4][125] Several estimates of the number of slaves in the world have been provided. According to a broad definition of slavery used by Kevin Bales of Free the Slaves (FTS), an advocacy group linked with Anti-Slavery International, there were 27 million people in slavery in 1999, spread all over the world.[126] In 2005, the International Labour Organisation provided an estimate of 12.3 million forced labourers in the world,[127]. Siddharth Kara has provided an estimate of 28.4 million slaves at the end of 2006 divided into the following three categories: bonded labour/debt bondage (18.1 million), forced labour (7.6 million), and trafficked slaves (2.7 million).[122] Kara provides a dynamic model to calculate the number of slaves in the world each year, with an estimated 29.2 million at the end of 2009. The weighted average global sales price of a slave is calculated to be approximately $340, with a high of $1,895 for the average trafficked sex slave, and a low of $40 to $50 for debt bondage slaves in part of Asia and Africa"

Good luck
