After another two hours of hiking, the winding trail abruptly ended at a clearing, and before us was a mass of holes that could fit into the size of a football field,
又走了两个小时蜿蜒的小径戛然而止，我们面前的空地上出现了一大片坑洞，每个都有一个橄榄球场那么大，
and all of them were full of enslaved people laboring.
每个坑洞里都有奴隶在工作。
Many women had children strapped to their backs while they were panning for gold,

wading in water poisoned by mercury.

These miners are enslaved in a mine shaft in another part of Ghana.

When they came out of the shaft, they were soaking wet from their own sweat.

I remember looking into their tired, bloodshot eyes,
我记得他们布满红血丝的眼睛里充满疲惫，
for many of them had been underground for 72 hours.
其中很多人已在井下工作72个小时。
The shafts are up to 300 feet deep, and they carry out heavy bags of stone that later will be transported，

to another area, where the stone will be pounded so that they can extract the gold.

At first glance, the pounding site seems full of powerful men, but when we look closer,

we see some less fortunate working on the fringes,
一些在边缘地带的工人身有残疾，
and children too.
