DRC Mine Landslide Disaster: 80 Killed in Seconds

A catastrophic landslide struck an artisanal mine in Kawama, Lualaba Province, Democratic Republic of Congo on November 15, 2025, killing at least 80 people within seconds. This footage shows the moment the cliff collapsed and the tragic aftermath that followed.

Artisanal mining in the DRC is extremely dangerous — miners work without safety gear, under unstable rock walls, driven by poverty and demand for cobalt and copper used worldwide in electronics and EV batteries.

This video documents the human cost behind those minerals — the risk, the suffering, and the lives lost.

It has not been successful in a current internal combustion engine.

Liquid Hydrogen is not practical.

Generate and consume at same time might have a path.
