Small-scale miners sift sand as they mine for gold on a river bank in Mawab, Compostela Valley on Sunday, five days after Typhoon Pablo first hit land. In some parts of Mindanao, people took to gold panning as floodwaters swept a mining area in Mawab. Gold traders were buying ingots at P1,600 per gram, says miner Alexander Chavez, adding they earn P2,000 ($49) a day. Reuters/Erik De Castro
