This paper presents to identify opportunities and gaps of research for the integration of sustainable development, lean, and logistics concepts into a lean sustainable logistics model. Conceptual evaluation is the first step to understand the main points and link each concept. These concepts consist of four components, including the goals, elements, benefits, and limitations of each. The three relationships investigated in this research consist of the interfaces of sustainable development and logistics management, sustainable development and lean concept, and lean concept and logistics management. Following the conceptual evaluations and interfaces among them, the three concepts are integrated into a lean sustainable logistics model. There are four stages, comprising discordant action, proficiency, cooperation, and interdependence, for analysing the constructed model combination of lean sustainable logistics. Then the lean sustainable logistics model can be synthesised for implementation in organisations to achieve long-term benefits.Keywords: sustainable development; lean; logistics; conceptual evaluation; integration.Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Wichaisri, S. and Sopadang, A.

Abstract-Speaking of mining and sustainability sounds contradictory, as the environmental impact generated by resource extraction is well known. However, there are mining companies that are working to be safe and environmentally friendly. An example of this is presented in this study aimed at identifying occupational risks generated by the activities of a smallscale gold and silver mine located in northwestern Mexico. The methodology followed was a Sustainable Production Program (SPP) based on a continuous cycle of five steps in which the tools of cleaner production and pollution prevention are adapted. As a result of this project, it was possible to implement SPP activities: training for workers, use of personal protective equipment and adequate handling of chemicals. As a conclusion, it was verified that SPP application helped this mining company move towards sustainable patterns of production.Keywords-Small-scale Mining, Sustainable Production, Occupational Risks, Northwest of Mexico.Resumen-Hablar de minería y sustentabilidad suena contradictorio, ya que es bien sabido el impacto ambiental que se genera por la extracción de recursos. Sin embargo, existen empresas mineras que están trabajando para ser seguras y amigables con el ambiente. Un ejemplo de lo anterior se presenta en este estudio, cuyo objetivo fue identificar los riesgos ocupacionales generados por las actividades de una pequeña mina de oro y plata ubicada en el noroeste de México. La metodología que se siguió fue un Programa de Producción Sustentable (PPS), basado en un ciclo continuo de cinco pasos, en el cual se adaptan las herramientas de producción más limpias y prevención de la contaminación. Como resultado de este proyecto, se logró implementar el PPS en actividades de: capacitación a los trabajadores, uso de equipo de protección personal y manejo de sustancias químicas. A manera de conclusión, se establece que la aplicación del PPS coadyuva a transitar hacia patrones sustentables de producción.
