What does the blue crane mine?

Answer 1

The blue crane, also known as the blue heron, does not mine in the literal sense but is often associated with the mining industry due to its habitat in regions near water bodies, including those affected by mining activities. In South Africa, the term "blue crane" can also refer to the blue crane bird, which is the national bird and is often found in grasslands and wetlands. The blue crane is not directly involved in mining; rather, it may be impacted by environmental changes caused by mining.
