Central Sulawesi is the region in Sulawesi island that is very rich with the
natural resource, especially in the gold mining. The gold minning in central Sulawesi
has been with the modern management or the traditional management.The negative
impact of mining is pollution of the environment, human rights violations and denial
of the existence of communal land. Although the mining industry is still potential to
increase the prosperity of the region, development based on exploitation of natural
resources lead to economic decline and environmental pollution. The role of local
government is required to provide guidance, oversight and enforce the rules in terms
of processing the mine intended to realize the social welfare through the cooperation
of all parties to allow welfare.
The gold ore minning of small scale minning still use amalgamation method as
the primary method in gold ore processing. The used amalgamation on a direct result
happened pollution of mercury and low gold obtainment. The impact of the
community gold minning management are very danger. The objectives of this
research are knowing the community gold minning system, the impact of the
traditional gold minning system to the environment and the social economic of the
community
We hope the the result of this research will give the development system in
bassed on the local natural resource pattern, the strategic of community the gold
minning system for the sustainable development to empowering the community from
their natural resources. This research ends with suggestions that the community gold
minning system must use the close system in the production process and the
integrated region for the localization of the production house.
