Colombia a mining giant above the law

RFI is joining forces with the Rafael Project of the international investigative journalism consortium Forbidden Stories to continue the work of Colombian journalist Rafael Moreno, who was murdered on October 16, 2022 in unexplained circumstances. In his articles, he exposed the dubious practices of large mining companies operating in the department of Córdoba, in the north of the country. Among them, one of the largest nickel mines in the world, Cerro Matoso SA, against which the neighboring communities have been fighting for more than 10 years, in vain.
