According to the evaluation of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment (TNMT) Dong Nai, the province has over 100 mines minerals value, including many solid minerals mining, potential server exploit construction materials such as stone pozzolan , laterit, materials as brick and tile, stone slices Wall tiles, construction sand land. Average annual mining of minerals provides over 2 million m3 sand for construction, 5 million m3 stone built, 2 million m3 in brick and tile, 245.000m3 kaolin, laterit 75,000 tons, 200,000 tons of stone on the pozzolan. But by the management to get the liquid exploitation "go" is a fairly common, this resource is gradually exhausted.



Sand resources focused mainly along Dong Nai River with reserves of hundreds of million m3 rivers should this become hot points on the illegal exploitation of the largest sand area. Anh Duong, vice president of district People's Committee for that, there are two types of objects Abuse mineral illegal exploitation of land is illegal and exploitation, trade, transport sand illegally. District 9 has handled beaches illegal activities, President of 1.240m3 sand, but the result is lower than reality, because the object of exploiting theft using more sand to the surface through the functions, wherry engulf the sand on the river when the tag access. When the beaches are illegal status of the subjects exploited pump sand directly onto trucks portability.

But leaders of Vinh Cuu district and bundle with their hands to prevent the exploitation of sand on the river illegal. Because the river is through the district boundary between the 2 provinces of Dong Nai and Binh Duong, the object of exploiting mainly sand sand to travel at night, when they check to run the other parts or to engulf non wherry tang, so the district is only five to be some cases "the marijuana" in violation.

In Long Thanh district heat is exploiting the situation to face the San lấp space. Many areas of the excavation to create a natural pond road whitefish square meters. Later in Tan Phuoc commune, many death removed the book from the exploitation of illegal cause. Became a reality trêu is a death in broad hectare, the cày cuốc all the ram in heaven, but when in contact with us, even local governments also do not know this. Because the "not knowing" government should have a death is 20 meters high click vam, excavation more than 30 meters, creating slope angle 60 degrees, to the mountain wall and standing, the threatened areas time lo reach.
A leader of TNMT than breathing, in exploiting unauthorized sand on the river canal district in many years this hole waterfront serious. But in this district, as it banned them as illegal exploitation of many, far from a night to be 14 wherry smoking illegal sand. "There are many types of minerals, if not exploration, exploitation correct technique will Kiệt Day, and to the children only have cold water only luy us', the officials say this.

According to a recent survey of agencies, state exploiting sand suffuse the Dong Nai river has serious impact on the flow, as in lo ven shore. Many previously only the depth is nearly 30 meters is 50 meters deep. In addition, at the local state still mineral are small spontaneous, not planned, not exploitation of the situation leads to loss of natural resources and polluted environment. Many places the exploitation only to immediate benefits, as open for the first, open to the left, affecting the monitoring, evaluation and planning mineral. The exploit is not reasonable was for this resource is gradually exhausted.

Mr. Vo Van District, Deputy Director of Dong Nai TNMT for 3 years (2006-2008), the province is handling only 60 violations of the mineral, with a total of nearly 400 fine million. The violations are mainly exploited not properly designed open; exploited beyond space and depth to allow; not reported regularly and monitor the environment. However mức handling of violations of mineral resources is too light compared to the profits that exploit illegal earnings.
