There are ~193 countries in the world. Its not just yours that matters. How many mines are run by under 10 people. The answer is a lot, there are 50 million artisanal miners globally, 90% of the mining workforce. South Africa shut down industrial mining for a period and is still not allowed to fully ramp up. Is oil all ok as it shuts down wells it can't just reopen? Exploration has been shut down across the board. No, mining is not ok. And its only a small part of the supply chain I mentioned. It's just one bit that will not be fully operational within 6 months.
