The concession is located in the Prey Long forest, which "is a vast, but rapidly shrinking old-growth forest and one of the few remaining lowland forests in Southeast Asia. Its size is recorded from 300,000 to 600,000 ha (depending on the source), and it sits at the juncture of four provinces between the Mekong and the TonleSap Rivers in central Cambodia. The forest is rich in biodiversity and home to many endangered species, including Asian elephants, Gibbonmonkeys, and rare orchids" (Scheidel, Work ,2018:11)
