Social alnd environmental impacts |
The site where Delcom (Kampuchea) pte. Ltd. is planning to build a factory and accommodation for miners is approximately 2 hectares in size. In addition, mining will generate noise and vibration from the machinery, but this will not disturb the lives of local people. When the entire project is fully operational, it will bring many benefits related to socio-economic development for both the local community and the nation. |

Land converted from |
An analysis of changes in the forest cover status of the entire concession area over the last 14 years, using the UNDP Dataset 1992-93, 1996-97 and the FA GIS Dataset 2002 and 2006, shows that the forest cover status across the entire concession area has been lost by 90 hectares, or 90 percent, compared to the total forest cover (or evergreen forest) area. |
|
Environmental management plan |
The mining concession area is small (100 hectares). The ecological resources are a dry mixed deciduous forest and semi-degraded. The gold mine exploration and exploitation project is considered to be a medium-scale project or Category B. After mining, the company will rehabilitate the land and reforest it (one year required), so the area will again be covered with forest cover. |
|
Development plan |
The project planned to import a mining grinding machine with a capacity of milling capacity of 125 microns of mines and capable of breaking 3,000 tons of gold per month. Build office (accommodation of the site director, key staff, kitchen, pits, mining wells, workshop, storage of generator, storage of chemical substances, storage of explosives, mining wastewater treatment site, and mining transportation system. The company plans to invest USD 2.45 million in preparing the gold productivity system, local infrastructure, and road construction. |
|
Mitigation strategies |
According to project management measures, the project owner is responsible for the environmental management of the project, while the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Energy, and the provincial authorities monitor the implementation of the project. The mitigation strategies are reforestation after the site and the mine pit are closed. Continuity of noise and vibration released by the machinery and hunting through the implementation of some measures surrounding the pits bunker prohibits or strictly instructs the workers and the armed forces employed there not to hunt for food. Reducing toxic emissions must be installed on all plants. Reduce soil erosion impacts in the extraction stage of extraction of rock and waste disposal, etc. |
