Children play on old tires that will be burned to warm the rock and make it more brittle in the Pissy quarry. Located in one of the many slums of Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso, West Africa), the open pit site employs more than 1,500 people, mainly women and children. It is the last chance of work for the poorest people in the city. Four cents of Euro (50 FCFA) for every bowl of stone transported or crushed is too long a sentence for the workers of this incredibly inhospitable underworld in Africa where the unbearable heat (every day over 40 Celsius) makes it practically impossible to work in minimum safety and hygiene conditions, making this place ideal for the proliferation of perennial respiratory and skin diseases among its inhabitants, as well as constant landslides and death.
