It is reported that Crugosdop is one of the South African Gold Mine Mine Mine. When many illegal miners are entangled, these people are called "ZAMA ZAMAS" and have been making riots for many years, which seriously endangers local law and order.

According to local media reports, the illegal miners named "Zama Zamas" have become increasingly rampant since 2018. At the time, an Australian mining company named Mintails went bankrupt and liquidated, which left more than 1,700 hectares of waste reactors and open -air pits in the local area. After that, this group of "ZAMA ZAMAS" illegal miner gangs occupied the land and began to compete for the remnant gold in the underground veins, and often broke out of fire fighting. According to locals, the "ZAMA ZAMAS" illegal miner gang is the culprit of criminal acts in the region.

The leader of the protests Dabra said: "We have reported to the police a lot of crimes that 'ZAMA-ZAMAS', but it is obvious that they have not taken any action and failed to deal with criminal problems in the area."
