Myanmar is the largest supplier of jade in a trade worth US$30 billion per year, however accidents are frequent at its mining sites. The largest jade mine in the world is at Hpakant in Kachin state.[1] A landslide killed at least 116 people in the 2015 Hpakant jade mine disaster.[2] In 2019, fifty workers were buried in a mine collapse, resulting in the deaths of four of them and two rescue workers.[2]
