John Tours a Silver Mine in Potosi, Bolivia

"After purchasing dynamite at the local tienda, we head up into the mines of Cerro Rico in Potosi, Bolivia that, at one time, was the richest source of Silver in the world making Potosi the wealthiest city in the world. Those days are gone but the poor miners still spend their lives trying to earn a living the old fashioned way in these mines."
