Wang Saphung (Thai: วังสะพุง; IPA:[wāŋsā.pʰūŋ]) is a district (amphoe) in the central part of Loei province, northeastern Thailand. The district has been the site of a long-standing dispute between the villagers of Ban Na Nong Bong and its environs and Tungkum Limited, a subsidiary of Tongkah Harbour PCL. Tungkum extracts gold from an open pit mine in district and has been charged with environmental destruction by many of those living nearby.[1][2]
