Mining company Osino Resources has started digging up the remains of people buried at its site, situated about 10km outside Karibib on Okawayo Farm, to enable gold mining activities to kick off.

The relatives of those buried there were, however, brokenhearted, as they were not invited to witness the exhumation process.

Canadian-based mining company Osino Resources owns the Twin Hill Gold Project.

However, on the farm lie four graves that are older than 50 years and belong to the Auxab family.
