It is a month since a catastrophic dam burst in eastern Brazil. Waste from the Samarco mine, owned equally by two global mining giants Vale and BHP Billiton, killed 13 people. Many hundreds of people were displaced in the disaster as 60,000 tonnes of toxic waste from the mine and mud swallowed up entire villages below the dam. The Brazilian government is seeking US$5.2bn in damages. The 主播大秀's Daniel Gallas reports from the breached dam a month ago. He has now gone to see how people and villages much further down the River Doce have been affected.
