This step is the core part of an EIA. Impact assessment refers to the detailed evaluation of the environmental and social impacts of the planned project and identified alternatives, compared to the baseline conditions. This includes qualitative descriptions such as measuring high, medium and low impacts, and quantitative descriptions, such as indicating the cubic metres of water …
The mining industry does, however, produce enormous volumes of waste. The amount of mine waste produced is of the same order of magnitude as that of fundamental Earth-shaping geological processes, some several thousand million tonnes per year (Fyfe, 1981, Förstner, 1999).The chief waste stream is tailings, which are often stored in impoundments …

This chapter discusses the potential onshore environmental impacts and mitigation measures associated with the construction and operation of the LNG Facilities site and the access road to the site (referred to collectively herein as 'the LNG Facilities site' and shown in Figure 4.1). The
Environmental impacts of mining appear to be most well known all over the world – almost beyond the necessity of further elucidation and questioning ([2, 3]; Table 1).The mining industry has recognized its impact on the environment and has identified the control and restriction of such impact as one of its key challenges [4, 47])
Land degradation is a global challenge with profound impacts on both people's livelihoods and the environment. Mining activities present significant environmental challenges, necessitating effective monitoring and management strategies for land impacted by post-mining activities. Remote sensing has emerged as a crucial tool for monitoring land degradation and …
Mining leads to land degradation by stacking of mine waste and loss of fertile topsoil and vegetation covers, abstraction and deterioration of natural drainage systems, …
To address these issues, various mitigation measures can be employed. Implementing and ... it is possible to minimize the environmental impacts of sand mining and ensure the long-term ...
17 1. Background Mining activity has existed since the beginning of human society and minerals have contributed to the development of human civilization since
Background: Mining can directly and indirectly affect social and environmental systems in a range of positive and negative ways, and may result in societal benefits, but may also cause conflicts, not least in relation to land use. Mining always affects the environment, whilst remediation and mitigation efforts may effectively ameliorate some negative environmental impacts.
"Despite the large impact mines have on the environment, mining is a significant contributor to our economy from both a financial and an employment perspective," states Stubbs. South Africa is far ahead of the global marketplace when it comes to waste management legislation, setting the benchmark for innovation in the industry – driving ...
The control measures to mitigate various environmental impacts are also highlighted in this chapter for carrying out mining operation in an environmentally compatible manner. Further, all provisions of Coal Mines Regulations and Directives shall be followed in this project. 4.2 IMPACT ASSESSMENT & POLLUTION CONTROL MEASURES FOR AIR The impact ...
Today, it is increasingly recognized that air pollution hurts human health. Consequently, efficient mitigation strategies need to be implemented for substantial environmental and health co-benefits. A valid approach to reducing the air pollution effects on the environment and human health is proposed. Specific guidelines have been elucidated by differentiating …
Aluminium production has a range of impacts, including environmental impacts, such as greenhouse gas emissions from energy consumption and dust pollution, and changes in landscape and ecology from the extraction of raw materials (Dragastan et al., 2009; Lee et al., 2017; Paraskevas et al., 2016).While bauxite mining and refining can contribute to the …
Provides basic information about the mining cycle, from exploration for economic mineral deposits to mine closure. The booklet discusses the environmental aspects of metal mining and …
Maintaining human wellbeing and the benefits of ES to people requires a comprehensive assessment of threats posed by mining activities. Current literature emphasises a strong focus on the environmental and social impacts of mining, often due to land degradation (Simmons et al., 2008; Townsend et al., 2009), biodiversity loss (Butt et al., 2013; Harfoot et …

Impact Assessment Studies are used to quantify impacts of mining activities within the zone of impact. To prevent adverse impacts of mining, environmental management plan is prepared through the ...
The investigation identified three primary categories of measures: engineering controls, water-based suppression methods, and technological solutions. The study …
at mitigation of the identified impacts, and in a more general sense compliance with environmental and mining legislation, the preceding sections are particularly useful for understanding the importance of the measures proposed here. For easy reference, specific mitigation measures for the pre-mining and mining phases are
Rare earth elements (REEs) are important raw materials for green technologies. However, REE mining and production uses techniques that are often not environmentally sustainable. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a well-recognized method for evaluating the environmental impacts of products and technologies. This article provides an overview of the …
