The man, Pong, and I sat at the wooden table, while a shy young woman brought us bottles of water. Trying not to sound overly interested, I asked him about the camp. It belonged to an Australian mining company, he told me, who were prospecting along the banks of the Sekong for gold and other precious metals. A team of Australians had just left and Pong, who'd trained as a geologist in Soviet Uzbekistan, had just started a twenty-eight-day shift. I asked him if they'd found gold.
His mouth curled into a greedy smile. 'Oh yes. Lots – and copper, zinc, lead. We'll start drilling upriver at Ban Bak next year.'
