Abstract The aim of this study was to explore the enterprises in the mining area, in the face of environmental pollution, to use relationship embedding to acquire new key knowledge from the external network, and to improve environmental governance performance. In this paper, a model between relationship embedding and environmental governance performance was established, and five main hypotheses were proposed. Luliang Mountain Area is a typical mining area in China. And this study used 310 sample datum and regression analysis to empirically test the mechanism, taking Luliang Mountain Area as an example. First, SPSS statistical software was used for reliability and validity analysis of the questionnaire, and the results showed good. Then regression analysis was performed to test the hypothesis. The results showed that relationship embedding has a significant positive impact on environmental governance performance, and enterprises in the mining area use relationship embedding to obtain key knowledge, which can enhance environmental governance performance. Internal social capital has a positive adjustment effect on the relationship between relationship embedding and knowledge acquisition. In order to control environmental pollution in the mining area, enterprises should make full use of the relationship embedding, acquire new key knowledge, improve environmental governance capacity, and improve the environmental governance performance of enterprises. Keywords Mining area pollution . Environmental governance performance . Relationship embedding . Knowledge acquisition . Social capital
Introduction Since the reform and opening up 30 years ago, China has developed rapidly. However, the rapid development was largely at the cost of environmental resources, which has brought a series of environmental pollution problems (Li 2019; Li and Wu 2013; Lu et al. 2018). In the mining area, this kind of unbalanced development phenomenon is especially serious; the bad environmental pollution has seriously hindered the development of the enterprise. For enterprises, to obtain long-term development opportunities, they must improve their environmental governance ability (Yan 2019; Lemly 2019; Zhu 2009).
