地点: 缅甸
The gold mining on the Kok River in Mong Yawn has expanded in recent months, and locals say it is now being carried out 24 hours a day.
There are four main Chinese companies carrying out the mining, employing over 300 workers, who are mostly Chinese. They are mining on the hills and along the riverbanks, as well as using dredging boats on the river itself.
The mining residue, including toxic gold extraction chemicals such as cyanide, is flowing directly into the Kok River. This is causing water turbidity and pollution. Locals are too afraid to use the water for domestic consumption, and there are few fish left in the river.

《从雾霾到砷污染:泰国跨境污染引发不满加剧》泰国公共电视台,2025年4月19日
发源于缅甸,流经泰国清迈与清莱的郭河(Kok River)与赛河(Sai River)近期被检测出砷含量超标,引发沿岸社区对生命健康的严重担忧。
上月,在清迈府美艾县(Mae Ai)三个不同地点采集的郭河水样中,砷含量远超安全标准。
公众普遍认为有毒重金属污染的源头来自上游缅甸由中国企业经营的金矿。
清迈与清莱府的学者和民间组织代表强烈批评政府未能系统性应对缅甸多个露天矿区带来的跨境污染问题。
民间团体已联合提交请愿书,敦促泰国总理紧急应对两条河流的污染问题。该地区的河水是约120万泰国居民的主要自来水水源,同时维系着数千户家庭的生计。
