几内亚周四就东北部锡吉里区的非法金矿开采问题开庭审理，此前当局进行了长达数月的军方支持的打击非法开采行动。
Guinea opened a trial on Thursday over illegal gold mining in the northeastern district of Siguiri, following a months-long military-backed crackdown on unregulated extraction.
当局称，安全部队逮捕了1200人，并驱逐了数万名在该地区矿区工作的外国人。
Authorities said security forces arrested 1,200 people and expelled tens of thousands of foreign nationals who had been working in the area's mines.
政府早前禁止了其所谓的“非正规和非法”金矿开采，随后部署军队。
The government had earlier banned what it termed «unregulated and illegal» gold mining before deploying troops.
