The shocking truth about the land with the world famous 'gold of demons'

Kawah Ijen volcano in East Java, Indonesia is where miners work hard to get sulfur manually. Here, sulfur is also known as "golden devil". The exploitation of "gold of demons" is extremely dangerous, even miners are killed while working.

One of the most special places in the world, the volcano Kawah Ijen is located in East Java, Indonesia, famous for the exploitation of " Devil's gold " (The Devil's gold).

In fact, "demonic gold" is the name of the Indonesian people used to call sulfur.This name comes from the yellow color of sulfur and the mining site.

Sulfuric gas at the crater Kawah Ijen is mined by miners for sulfur.

Accordingly, people transfer gas through a network of ceramic steam pipes.Thanks to that, the melting sulfur condensed.

Next, when pouring sulfur into the pipeline leading to the tanks lying on the ground, then it will turn yellow when cold.

Miners will smash each block of cooled sulfur and place them in baskets to bring to the nearby refinery.

In addition, miners work in extremely dangerous and toxic environments.Due to long-term exposure to toxic chemicals, most miners working here live no more than 40 years old.

Miners often suffer from breathing problems from breathing sulfuric gas while exploiting the "demon gold".

Even, some miners died because of the toxic gas that suddenly spewed out from the gas-filled holes of the "gold of the devil" land.
