Junior miner in Vietnam

Tu. aged 10, is hammering stones to find out antimony, a chemical element contained in stones that are discharged from a company. Stones are usually big, hard that breaking them into small pieces is a hardship. She dropped out to help her family. This is a living of a child in Vietnam's rural area.

This is one of the distressing stories of minor ethnic children who are uneducated and accept manual jobs to earn their living. The law of labour prohibits this practice, however, there is always a gap in the locality.
