Two minutes of luck

In the Muzo Region, specifically in the Quebrada las Animas, where the non-formalized miners do not belong to companies already established and with permits for the extraction of emeralds, they always have a saying that they repeat permanently in their days. Two minutes of luck, two minutes where you can find the fortune with a single emerald, "a single stone can get you out of poverty" they say. Every day, every day, they move from the town to the body of water, which is practically dry. But that keeps the fortune of who can extract from the mud, that hope that goes round each of their minds.
