{"Image ImageDescription": "MUZO, BOYACA DEPARTMENT, COLOMBIA - AUGUST 2010: A miner walking down the Millionaire mine. The miners work simply for food, spending 12 hours underground each day, with virtually no safety precautions, in return for a bowl of soup. Even then, it is the best status that workers can hope for in Muzo. Those lucky enough to work underground within the mines say their situation is not as bad as that of the guaqueros, who survive on less than 20 Euros per year, as they at least are given food to eat each day.
