Methane not only has the potential to asphyxiate miners, but it is also a very combustible gas (a hydrocarbon: CH4), meaning all it takes is a spark and the mine goes BOOM.
There is also a danger from the arsenic that is found in association with gold mine tailings (waste).

How can you minimize the effects of coal mining?
Two areas of coal mining result in health and environmental damage:a) Risk to minersb) Risk of mining activities to environmentThe related links show why mining is considered the second most dangerous profession in the US. Respiratory problems and accidents caused by mine cave ins are considered the highest risk. To lessen the danger, use of respirators and better construction of cells (cribbing) is needed.The most environmentally damaging mining activity is open pit mining, where there is high risk of air pollution and through land removal, alteration of the ecosystem. Through the permitting process, it is possible that restrictions can be placed on mines to lessen the damage.See related linksIn the UK coal mining has been known to cause industrial injuries such as industrial deafness, vibration white finger and black lung disease. These are caused from vibrating power tools and coal dust inhalation. The risks to health of coal mining have been made by improving ventilation and breathing apparatus and improving the machinery used to mine the coal. To see the types of disease mining can cause and how workers can claim compensation in the UK see the related link entitled "miners injury compensation"
Why opencast mining is cheaper for companies?
