A gold mine collapse on the Central African Republic border kills at least 100

At least 100 people were killed when a gold mine collapsed in Zamboye, Baboua, in the Central African Republic. The site is at the border with Cameroon. The toll is stated as at least 100. The report identifies a mine collapse rather than an armed attack.

A collapse at a gold mine can trap workers underground or on unstable ground. This note does not say whether the mine was industrial or artisanal. It does not give a depth. It gives the place and the death toll.

Baboua is the area named, and Zamboye is the locality. The border with Cameroon places the site on a frontier. The report does not say victims were from both countries. It locates the mine in the Central African Republic at that border.

No rescue count of survivors is included. No cause such as rain or blasting is stated. The figure of at least 100 means the confirmed deaths were not presented as a final closed number. Later revisions are not in this report.

Other deadly accidents the same week included road crashes and a hotel fire in different countries. Those tolls are separate. The mine figure is not a regional total. It belongs to Zamboye.

No company name is attached. No government condolence statement is summarized. The confirmed disaster facts are a gold-mine collapse, the location at Baboua on the Cameroon border, and at least 100 people killed.
