…working in a risky business in mostly poor countrys and a mine is a depreciating asset ..the more you mine the less you have until its gone !

We are in a communist type situation globally. Its not just miners. People that produce THINGS that have weight and mass, farms or factories feast or famine situations always end up with chump change. Producers of anything, and Savers too always got punished.
For the greater good. Low MATERIAL costs so millions of over paid middlemen and over paid public employees and over paid service sector overhead folks can live. And look at all the publically held corporations. Far less individual ownership of small businesses. All got hammered.
