Miners chat at a chromium mine in Bulqize on September 23, 2020. - The chromium extraction industry is going through a difficult time due to a fall in the price of the ore in international markets and as a result of disruptions caused by the Covid-19 outbreak. As the pandemic rocks global commerce, knock-on effects are being felt in poor corners of the world like Albania, where chromium miners have nowhere to sell their goods due to a drop off in purchases from China. The Balkan country's chromium sector is entirely dependent on exports, leaving the men and women who extract it at the mercy of world prices. (Photo by Gent SHKULLAKU / AFP)
