Brazil's advanced tech in "Targeting Gold" program helps arrest gold trafficker, cuts exports by 38%.

Brazil's Federal Police have implemented advanced technology to combat illegal gold trading in the Amazon, leading to the arrest of Harley Sandoval for illegally exporting 294 kilos of gold. The "Targeting Gold" program uses radio-isotope scans and fluorescence spectroscopy to trace gold origins, helping to protect the Amazon and reduce illicit trade, which accounts for up to half of Brazil's gold output. This technology has contributed to a 38% drop in Brazil's gold exports last year.
