Thousands of Greeks protest planned gold mine THESSALONIKI, Greece (AP) — More than 10,000 people have taken to the streets of Greece's second largest city to protest a planned gold mine they see as an environmental risk. The issue has bitterly divided Halkidiki residents, with some claiming the mine will harm tourism and release toxic substances, and others denying that and saying new jobs are crucial during Greece's severe economic crisis.
