location: Bardai
notes: Ten people were killed in clashes at a gold mine in the Tibesti Mountains in northern Chad, pitting locals against outsiders in search of riches, a security source told AFP. The violence erupted early Tuesday when local residents told gold miners who had flocked to the central Sahara mountain region from other parts of Chad to leave, the source said on condition of anonymity. 'A fight broke out and the outsiders killed three locals,' he said. 'The locals then ambushed the outsiders, who ended up leaving the area ... but seven gold miners were killed while the others got away.'
