Two people have been confirmed dead in separate galamsey pits at Karlo in the Suaman District of the Western North Region.
This brings the number of galamsey pit deaths to five in the past two months.
The victims identified as Abaawa Mary, 38, and Money Fresh 32, were all found dead in separate abandoned galamsey pits.
Reports say, one of the victims, Money Fresh, who was an illegal miner, went to wash down after work and, unfortunately, slipped and fell into the galamsey pit.
