Watched this as an African and I felt a pierce in my heart. The documentary is beautiful, that is not a doubt. But it sheds so much information on how Africa is so rich, yet it benefits the least from all its resources. Half of this documentary is in Africa. Some of the places that had (in the past) gold e.g San Francisco are so developed right now, but all gold-rich sources in Africa are still struggling to even have power, healthcare, and education. Colonialists taught us so many things like religion, social interaction, their culture, but not good governance; and Africa is bleeding and being milked of all its minerals and resources for way less than it deserves. The South African gold mined in the 80's are probably sitting in colonial vaults right now, backing their economy. I couldn't help but feel sorry for our motherland. An informative and eye-opening film Idris.
You said it all 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Why ? Idi Amin,seseko,Mubarak,kadafi ,mugabe,bedel Bokassa etc don’t know what is right and what is wrong that’s why they corrupted and brutalized their own people?
You being from africa, dont they force the children into mining it, like the diamonds ?
You're exactly right. Thank you 😊
People that want to exploit you will not teach you anything that is valuable to know. You can see the results now, what did you learn?! There is still gold. So, stop worrying about what others did not teach you. Correct the problems. Don't depend on anyone else. Understand your own value!
I clicked this through an ad and couldn’t stop watching. Am I the only one?
Same for me 😂
same
Yup
Same
Lmao yes
What a marvelous piece of mockumentary this is! I love how Idris Elba's unbelievable and contractually obligated performance brings soulless performance to an elevated degree! This puts the "Crying Indian" ad by Keep America Beautiful to shame as probably the best greenwashing effort to date. Thank you, Idris Elba and the team who made this!

@@paulyjones3966- You don’t live with the misery of those in grinding perpetual deep poverty. I have.
I will never forget the stench of it.
Thank you!!!
Lol, came to the comments seeing if anyone else saw through this. I haven't looked into the background yet but just framing of everything set off my bullshit meter. Gotta be an industry group or something. They walked right past examining the environmental impact, straight to the fix...what a choke job.
Literally funded by the world gold council. Straight propaganda in favor of their customers, the world's 15 largest gold mining companies@@JustinS236
I love how you can really SEE the light behind his eyes extinguish itself when he describes the colonial, racist, environmental catastrophe that is gold mining as a 'romantic relationship with ups and downs'.
You should write another comment, you forgot a couple buzzwords
@@MostafaElSakariThey're only buzzwords to ignorant people

I enjoyed this documentary about the history of gold mining, but I was disappointed that it didn't talk about the most important issue facing Ghana's gold mining industry: the damage it's doing to our water and forests.
The sharp contrast between the developed countries and Ghana is a stark reminder of our corrupt leaders and how they are mismanaging our natural resources. But overall, I learned a lot from this documentary
Yes, you're exactly right! Thank you for speaking the truth for the people. It's a crying shame that greed takes presidence over the Indigenous peoples there and the whole world over. Heartbreaking! Sending love and prayers to you and all the oppressed people in the world. Thank you and God bless you 🙏🙏🙏❤ from Georgia USA 🇺🇸
😢... I thought that hydro power and solar power were renewable.
Yup. When I saw the pomp and pagentry for the Ashanti king it saddened me. They bow before a mortal man that allows them to eat his crumbs.
@@ariamason9324 if you American I hear you. If you British we gonna have a problem
@@ariamason9324hello Sir, please do some research. The Asantehene doesn’t own and control the gold in Ghana. The gold mined in Ghana is managed by the Government of Ghana. The gold he’s wearing has been passed on for generations. If he sells all that gold, it won’t even match the amount of gold mined a day in Ghana.
He’s actually a great King, and we respect him. We Asantes have a tradition that we honor.
Ghana 🇬🇭 is gold . The leaders must develop the country with the natural resources they wield in their soil. I’m excited to watch this documentary as a Geophysicist. Kudos Idris 👍🏿
Yes Ghana is gold but unfortunately poor management. Nice to see you re a Geophysicist...Are you based in Ghana?
I was in Ghana and told the people I met that they need to TAKE BACK THEIR LAND! I am now reading the same response 22 years after my visit there. Sad.
The mineral resources has been sold to western world, with huge number of years on them by our leaders

I wonder how Gold trade has prospered the UK so much than African countries and communities like Tarkwa in Ghana where Gold and other mineral like manganese has been mined for over a 100years. Can you do a documentary on this subject as well please.
Prospered? 😂
It is pretty simple. The UK offered the chief of each tribe the support of each ruler with munitions in exchange for a deed to the mines as well as a cut of the profits. No one said no worldwide 100 years ago.

Great documentary! I was quite disappointed about not going deeper on how some of these gold mines has caused great damage to our environment. Especially in Ghana 🇬🇭 where illegal miners, embarked by some government officials and even some traditional rulers destroying our water bodies therefore making unsafe for consumption and environmental degradation . I believe other African countries are also facing similar problems.
Likewise in Kongo.

Corruption & collusion on the part of the national governments of the countries who resources are "for sale"
Its sponsored by gold council.they arent going to be striving for a balanced reporting. its only going to be in praise of gold.
Yes, sir !!!
I have just fallen out of love with Idris. Wow😢
Gotta make that sponsorship money🤑😂
This is a very briliant doc Mr Idris, but as for England you did not show your mining sites
"Gold is tested with fire, and the believer is tested with trials."
A brother is like gold and a friend is like diamond. If gold cracks you can melt it and make it just like it was before. If a diamond cracks, it can never be like it was before.

Thank you for these attributed words of wisdom.
Note : diamond and coal are related
But a diamond doesn't crack

Respect to your humility Idris infront of the king. You might be world famous but you were humble before an African king and you must be admired for that
Nice one dude
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk yeah buddy
Do u know how powerful these kings are, especially that Asante king.
Great and telling, sad too. For to see the people suffering, though there have been gold mined from their ccountries, like the Congo, Ghana and Johannesburg; yet the United Kingdom has millios of bars of gold in their reserve; something is very much wrong with that picture. Thanks, Mr. Albi.
As a Geologist, it's awesome to see such documentaries that bring awareness on the mineral value chain
Thanks for commenting - we're glad you enjoyed it!
As a gynecologist, I concur.

How can is be a good documentary on the mineral value chain, when it doesn’t over the exploitation, slave labor, and robbery that permeates this entire industry?

Wow thanks world gold forum for your unbiased definitely not propaganda documentary. I’ll be sure to buy more gold now!
Buy from where?
Sooo, i watched all of the film interpretations of rhe story and love them all in their own regard.
What is interesting is that,especially on this one is, that a lot of people behave like the aliens in the story, 100% disregarding any other impression than their very own limited personal view,compelety revitalizing the aliens prejudice and speciesm that the whole story is about.
To them, this scenic interpretation is simply "meat".
Awesome .
I've recently discovered my love for gold. It's a tragedy that my country has so little to show for its natural prosperity. South Africa was a top producer, not only of gold, but the biggest diamonds in the world.
We want the queens jewels repatriated. We will never forget.
But even if Europeans never went there, you wouldn’t have those diamonds. It was EUROPEANS who cultivated the land, not you.
@Zoomer_Analysis what do you mean. They have it it's in their land. The europeans are invaders
Great documentary. Packed with information.
The only thing "lacking" is the writers choice to not highlight the devastation that this "precious" mineral has wrought. The negative Environmental impact on mining communities and conflicts that has led to the senseless loss of human life. 😢
THIS!! It really is an ignorant characterisation to not engage with the consequences, even to this day
Although this precious metal has brought a lot of misery over the past centuries; it's value today in manufacturing, especially in high tech applications far outweighs the harm. Modern mining techniques that were developed at a human cost over the past century have mostly eliminated the risk to the communities that depend on the mining for a source of income. It's all well and good to enjoy your electronics and EVs yet discount the efforts that it took to safely deliver an essential element in their manufacturing. If there's an issue with safety, it's with the people who oversee the mines, not the technology or the element.
@@brianbenson9736 my dear brother, I disagree strongly with your assertion. Nothing 'far outweighs' the senseless waste of human lives. (I will take wild guess and say you haven't lived in war torn country).
It behoves the companies who make use of these minerals to ensure that they are sourced in a humane manner that does not come at a cost to humans and the environment. With the net profits they post annually, they can ensure that conflict minerals are a thing of the past. Au contraire, it appears that multinationals prefer countries embroiled in chaos because they can get the minerals "cheaper". Even the globally touted Kimberly Process has been a massive failure in recent times (in my opinion).
To dream of a world where indegenes are not slaughtered for what is underneath the soil they cultivate should not be farfetched. (I continue to dream)❤️.
Yes so true 😢
❤
Little did i know, the largest piece of gold is Idris Elba himself. Thank you for this amazing docu
Lightweight historical perspective, shallow exploration of how gold fever and greed has devastated many and benefitted very few
Em
Alba🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was happy to see the event
That is what culture and tradition really looks like (16:00)
My oldest maternal uncle was originally a self taught uranium miner. He patented the first under water shotgun for sharks & loved the oceans & Earth. He established a sea turtle preserve in Belize many years ago. He became the chief environmental engineer of Fluor. He worked with mining & power plant construction worldwide. He also held patents on gold extraction & mining processes. We have a picture of him holding an enourmous block of gold weighing 80 pounds. He is straining while grinning ear to ear.
We still extract gold & diamonds from several sources using a variety of techniques. It's thrilling & fun.
Gold. I have mixed feelings about our human nature after watching this. Thanks for showing the journey from rock to wrist. Also it has generated a desire to travel in me. How everybody lives differently around the globe cheers mate
Africa's one of the world biggest producer of gold been mining for decades, and yet one of the poorest. Hope you include it in your story.
I used to work for PKF and audited the Bank of Ghana! There are very few people on Planet Earth who have handled a Gold bar! I happen to be one of them! 😊
Amazing
That's pretty freaking awesome, Audrey. 👍🏾
Hahahahah....funny enough and luckily I got to hold a bar just two days ago at the Asante golf mines in bibiani in the western north region of ghana
As we speak, the spot price of a Troy ounce of gold reaches all time highs in Japanese Yen, Korean Won, British Pound, Kiwi Dollar, Aussie Dollar, the Euro. The Swiss Franc and the world reserve currency, US Dollar, are also inching to all time lows against gold in these times of global economic turmoil and war. Very nice docu, Idris made a wonderful guide.
@@naftauroon85 yes, so well done.👍
I was born in San Francisco, moved back to the Bay Area few years ago & wow, thought I already knew basically all there was to know about the Sierra Nevada 1800's gold rush, $5 fruit pies & all - but apparently *not so.* many thanks to the World Gold Council *and* the host-narrator for taking me back to school.🏫🙋🏾♀
😊😊😊
I gotta hand it to the soundtracks are amazing got some of the most interesting sounds I’d happily sit thru a full album back to back. Now, where to find it?! 😂
I enjoyed the documentary and leaned the many ways gold is being used. I also loved the way is was narrated. Idris did a fantastic job.
Very well done 👏🏽.
Would have also loved for this to tie early European interest of West Africa to the allure of gold mines in the empire of Mali. This is what drew Europeans to the Gold Coast (Ghana).
Cs
Would have loved for them to mention that the Asante Empire was based on slavery.
@@six-gunThat’s not a fair way to judge the Asante Kingdom because Asantes don’t even live on the coast, and didn’t have first contact with the European slave traders. The blame should be on those tribes that were on the coast that allowed slavery to grow. Asantes did what they needed to do for survival. They either sell others or be sold. Infact, Asantes are the only tribe that opposed and fought against the European slave traders. The other tribes united with the British to fight Asantes.
one thing that strikes very hard is the commitment of one mining company to retun the site back to nature and they have done that in an incredible way. Very powerful example worth emulating
Why hasn’t Idris Ilba posted this incredible documentary about Gold on his Instagram account ?????
Country's mandate they do it. If they were left to their own devices who knows, you would hope they would do the right thing.
@@mikegore5840they are left to their own devices in most of the world, and it’s turned out exactly as expected. Toxic pit lakes are everywhere, and it even just requiring they put up a fence and a locked gate used to be considered a radical and progressive stance to take.
After displacing 100's of 1000's of people illegally and forcefully.
Yeah big up to them
Wish you had gone deeper and more in depth on the damage that gold has brought along with its benefits . But still, your voice is mesmerizing and you are the perfect narrator for this documentary.
Very interesting documentary. Idris thanks so much. You can see from the documentary every place in the western world where gold was discovered in California and the rest are well developed but all the areas in Africa where gold is discovered are still backward struggling to develop because of the suppression from our colonial Masters
Now it’s time for you to do the one on Diamond’s😉💯‼️
Enjoyed it very much... especially the African piece. It seemed to mean the most... like it's part of them. Regarding the Iranian jeweler that rappers use... I always found it weird they'd spend that money outside of their community... makes little sense to me. Also, the gold chain thing is a reference to Mr. T who stated he wore as an expression/homage to the enslaved ancestors who hard and brutal metal chains by colonizers and enslavers. I believe this is why they, rappers, wore the chains... now... it means nothing to them.
Gold story is not complete by not mentioning the richest man to ever lived, Mensa Musa, the Mali empire.
As a student of natural science, geologist to be precise. This video is really an educational and fascinating. Which I really appreciate Mr Idris Elba❤. Hoping to see more videos on gemstones and other valuable metals, thanks 😊
I noticed him first at Prometheus. And I liked him immidiately. What a charismatic charakter. And since I followed him. He is incredible good looking and sympathetic. And I always hope that the private guy is a bit like his roles. I know that is stupid, but in his case... maybe it's true.😂❤
This was incredible to watch, thank you. Love Idris Elba 🥰 Africa should be far wealthier than it is
Having raw materials does not make you rich. That's a good starting point. You need education, management and a good policy that offers trade and fair working conditions.

@@swapangunin5231😊😮
What is there to love about the parts with Ghana?
Gold communities being underdeveloped or single individuals wearing enough gold fit to start a gold bank
@ebenezerlawsonasamoah9067, the culture is what I love. Plus, this is an African nation. Once we were rich, now because Nkrumah wanted a united Africa we had to try and help others out (the Asante region is the second richest region in Ghana. The poorest region in the one north from us. Funnily enough, they used to be quite rich too). Should've given us our independence by your logic. It would've been better considering the industrial output of the Asante region
Well done Idris. I wish you would’ve touched more on prevalent issues like illegal mining especially in Ghana.
I was expecting that, but unfortunately
There’s tons of videos like that this a great film that can help young people get a quick glimpse how the world works.
What we should be advocating against is not just illegal mining but irresponsible and unsustainable mining....the big men only use that as a decoy to appropriate the gold for themselves as they and their cohorts are behind mining in the forest reserves and all the hotspots.

This documentary was actually shallow . Never even mentioned the name Gold coast and how that gold doesn't benefit anyone in that country.
As a decendant of gold miners I was very excited when you discussed returning the gold mine back to nature. Right then, I knew my hope of seeing home was about to show on screen. Thank you for connecting Aotearoa New Zealand, Reefton to this epic on gold and its significance. We must always however remember, to return to nature, Nature is the Gold we need to thrive, no person can survive on Gold alone. Imagine a day where a fertile farm is much more valuable than this metal? I can.
Greed, Corruption and unreported DEATHS.
A beautiful and unique documentary it is interesting To know how this precious metals are so well hidden 😮
This films shows how all commodities actually gain their value. And that is through the amount of 'human labour' that goes into mining or creating them.
Slavery like sugar cocoa etc,,
Slavery in the context of the new millenium

This is one of the most profound documentaries by far on Gold i have seen. Every story was just as captivating as the scenery. Truly a special heartfelt touching moment for Idris Elba meeting the King. Beautiful documentary Mr. Elba thank you for all you, your crew and everyone did making this to share with the world. A wealth of knowledge worth its weight in gold.
🇨🇴It is really a wonderful adventure, finding gold, it is very hard work, full of mystery, old ancestral stories, but it is fascinating. what a good documentary🇨🇴
A good, solid documentary but more a social commentary rather than education of gold being a store of value. Mike Maloney's core videos are far more insightful but props to the team at WGC and Idris who lent some gravitas to what you were trying to achieve.
Yeah, Mike Maloney's video series entitled the Hidden Secrets of Money is far more educational and enlightening.

Yep....I worked 12 hr shifts here in Canada 🇨🇦 back in mid 80,s, after 8 hrs, I was granted my first break, so, nothing GG new here to see as far as treatment went.

Amidst all the concerns people have raised about this documentary, I wish you all could see how the foreign nations that had gold discoveries were able to negotiate and manage their resources adequately, and as well get the sites back to nature (as in the case of New Zealand). For how long will Africans stop blaming foreigners for their calamities. Imagine what Ghana is still celebrating in this modern world while the communities and nation at large are being ravaged by poverty. The people who came to open your eyes with their innovative ideas didn’t do bad, instead you didn’t and wouldn’t still put yourselves in order. This same thing is as applicable to every other natural resource that is found in Africa. Stop the blame and take responsibility. If you feel your government has sold your national assets, develop yourself and know what it takes to get into government to change the narrative.
My thoughts though
It's like this old prospector told me up in Jamestown, California... "Gold's where you find it."
Such a beautiful and informative documentary. And shout out to my mom for being a part of it💪🏾

The mining community who suffered with Malaria why is there hard working community looking pretty poor to the rest of the Golden community, Great to see Idris at the heart of A hard working community
Thank you Idris for such a great and interesting documentary! I was born and raised in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and never knew that there was such a huge gold mine in Val D’Or, Quebec! 🇨🇦
