27 Tibetans from Karsel village in Chabcha county in Tsolho have been detained for opposing local Chinese mining operations that have run beyond their contract and had begun to encroach on sacred sites. Four were later released. The Tibetans vowed to block any further Chinese mining of white marble in their area in order to protect their land and environment, and the adjacent cemetery and site of spiritual significance.
