MEXICO-RIVER-POLLUTION

A resident collects water outside their home in the Arizpe community, Sonora state, Mexico on August 12, 2014, where five days ago a copper mine leaked 40 thousand cubic meters of sulfuric acid into the Sonora River, seriously polluting the water way. Water supplies to 20,000 residents of seven Mexican towns were cut on August 12, 2014 after the leakage. Mexico's National Human Rights Commission said it was investigating the incident. More than a quarter of Mexico's mining activity is located in the Sonora region, making it the country's top producer of gold, copper and graphite.
