After mines close, several problems can arise, including environmental degradation, such as soil and water contamination from leftover chemicals and heavy metals. Communities may face economic challenges due to job losses, leading to increased unemployment and decreased local business viability. Additionally, abandoned mines can pose safety hazards, including unstable structures and the potential for hazardous material exposure. Finally, the loss of infrastructure and services can result in long-term social issues, including population decline and reduced access to essential resources.
