Illegal gold mining camp discovered in Ben Hai protective forest

Specifically, the working group discovered 3 locations with signs of illegal gold mining at lot 4, plot 4 and lot 10, plot 2, sub-area 576; and the same location at lot 33, plot 5, sub-area 582 in Ben Quan commune. At the scene, the subjects had set up camp, brought machinery into the deep forest to serve the gold mining. When discovering the inspection force, the subjects quickly left the scene, leaving behind many exhibits.

Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Hung said that illegal mining activities mainly take place at night, in rugged mountainous areas, making it difficult to inspect and handle. Currently, there are still many illegal gold mines in this area that cannot be demolished due to complex terrain conditions. He recommended that the authorities coordinate to promptly inspect and handle the situation thoroughly to prevent recurrence.
