Imagine being on strike for 18 years. 6,715 days. 🤯 53 have died since the start of the strike and they still held the line.

Over 600 workers will receive backpay, Christmas bonuses and benefits.

La historia de Grupo México comienza cuando Salinas reprimió a los mineros, quebró y privatizó la Compañía Minera de Cananea, entregándola prácticamente como regalo al papá del oligarca Germán Larrea.

Can ancient technology restore degraded rangelands? In Sonora, Mexico, conservationists and ranchers are building rock trincheras to slow water flow and erosion.

Studies show these simple structures increase biodiversity, water yields and drought resilience.

Rose Shimberg reports for #Mongabay.
Ancient rock structures help restore biodiversity on the US-Mexico border
CANANEA, Sonora — The day was windless. Long brown grasses speckled the landscape, and a stray tree erupted from the earth. The river channel was rusty, bone-dry. A pond that swells with summer rain…

Turquoise is from Old French: 'turquois' which means "Turkish" because it arrived in Europe from trade with the Ottoman Empire in the 17th century.

It is one of the oldest gemstones to be mined, used extensively by the First Dynasty Egyptians, circa 3000 BCE who mined it in two key areas of Sinai.

Yo nomás no comulgo con lo que decía el difunto sobre el rencor. El rencor es la memoria de las ofensas. Si perdonamos, olvidamos, y los culeros de siempre nos vuelven a hacer lo mismo que a los obreros de Cananea.
