2015-7-7 The mining industry is able to guarantee constant public security during open-cast mining activities and to offer an effective after-use of the land when the mines are closed. The most important measures to that end are the building of secure slopes and tipping areas, the regulation of water quality and water balance, the creation of an ...

Since cyanide, mercury and sulfuric acid are used to remove the wastewater, groundwater and air are contaminated as toxic dust . This is absorbed by animals and plants.

Read MoreOpen cast mining is a surface mining technique of extracting rock or minerals from the earth by their removal from an open pit or borrow pit. Walls of the pit are generally blast mined, creating ground vibrations and resulting in dust generation and water, air, and noise pollution. Although we are not aware of any studies evaluating the effect ...

Believe it or not, mining and economics go hand in hand; they are both built on the premise of extracting a commodity at the lowest cost and selling at highest profits. Business processes for mining include physical design methods, scheduling collections, expelling and removal of waste materials from the pit.
