Mineral mining can disrupt the environment in multiple ways. One very common way is the digging that often accompanies such mining, where either an open pit or a network of tunnels is used to access the minerals. In some cases the land and water is polluted by chemicals such as Mercury that are related to the mining process.

Yes, cholera did affect miners during the 1849 California Gold Rush. The influx of people to mining camps created overcrowded and unsanitary conditions, which facilitated the spread of the disease. Cholera outbreaks were reported in various mining towns, resulting in significant illness and mortality among miners and other settlers.
