<![CDATA[Debates about mining impacts on Indigenous communities often contrast accounts of restricted ecological access with environmental compliance records that measure different outcomes. This study examines claims concerning land and resource access, the documentary visibility of Indigenous ecological knowledge, and the comparability of environmental justice evidence in coal-mining areas of Murung Raya Regency, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. Using a qualitative documentary case study, ten groups of publicly available sources were reviewed, including investigative reports, customary mediation coverage, legal instruments, environmental performance ratings, biodiversity assessments, published water-quality research, and corporate disclosures. The documents were coded thematically and audited for alignment of actors, locations, periods, claim types, and evidentiary strength. The analysis identified recorded complaints about land and water access, reported customary mediation, corporate activities, and official environmental assessments. However, these materials frequently refer to different spatial units, assessment periods, and evaluative criteria. An administrative rating or secondary water-quality measurement does not independently establish pollution caused by a particular coal operator; similarly, limited documentation of Indigenous knowledge does not demonstrate the disappearance of that knowledge. The study proposes an evidence-alignment matrix to distinguish reported claims, verified administrative events, measured conditions, and unresolved questions, providing a transparent basis for further environmental justice assessment]]>
