Mining

Erosion, formation of sinkholes, loss of biodiversity, especially marine life, and contamination of water bodies are some of the environmental issues cause by mining. Soil erosion is prominent as mines are reclaimed when they are closed down. This will cause an instability in the soil, which is prone to erosion whe there is a heavy rain. Soil and other minerals from the mine also run into water bodies, contaminating them and destroying marine life.

When you are mining you could cut yourself in the process and die.

Mining has several bad effects. It leaves behind a huge hole after mining is done. Secondly it damages natural beauty. A beautiful landscape which once existed is now a huge piece of dug up earth. The main effects are that trees are cut down, and forests are deforestated. for 1. This brings up the amont of CO2 in the air because that's what trees use up and what we exhale, and secondly it means it is a loss of habitats. Birds, insects squirrels and other wildlife which habitated there now no longer have homes. Even some people rely on trees to use as fuel wood to cook on, heat water on and to stay warm.

Metals are sprayed with toxic chemicals to extract the metal from its ore, or to galvanise the metal. All these processes contribute to global warming which is becoming worse by the minute!

It can also,make the air of public opoin bad which can make wildlife die.

Mining is a way to obtain necessary and useful things from below the ground. Without mining, modern life as we know it would not be possible. Too many of the things we must have come from the ground. Coal and metal ores are particularly high on the list. Agregates, the rocks and minerals we use to build with, are mined. The list goes on....

there are a lot of environmental problems one is hurting the land, by taking the earth away from its usual spot, another with water, the water gets taken out of the mining spot, another is air, the oxygen is taken out of the place where you are mining and then there is the other waste materials such as pollution. i hope this answers your question. :-)

A case could be made for all areas where bauxite is found to be environmentally sensitive. Mining can be be devastating to the environment of an area. Lots of reclamation is needed to "put things back" as they were. But restoring plants can be difficult, particularly in a rain forest like the Amazon. That puts Brazil at the head of the list, and Guinea second. India has sensitive areas, too, though not rain forest, and you can add it third.

because it is

Mining operations in forest areas have also contributed to the destruction of forests.Mining activities cause soil erosion,while mine wastes and tailings pollute bodies of water.

Mining causes dust and particles to get into the air. This will add to air pollution. In a coal mine emissions of methane that is helping to mine the coal is also a contributing factor to pollution.

The effect of mining quartz is it make the world smell more. If there are still quartz mining going on, monitor lizards will extinct from the world.

Tin is primarily extracted from the mineral cassiterite, which is a form of tin oxide. Cassiterite is typically found in veins and alluvial deposits in regions rich in tin ores such as China, Indonesia, and Bolivia.

Minnesota. On the Cuyuna, Vermillion, Gunflint, and Mesabi ranges. This I know because I'm from the area.

Some of the key minerals mined in Michigan include iron ore, copper, gypsum, salt, and sand and gravel. Iron ore is particularly abundant in the upper peninsula of Michigan, while copper mining has historically been important in the Keweenaw Peninsula.

BSEN 10025-3GRS420N give me the material composition number

Salt's origins are in the rocks on land. As rocks weather and erode, finding their way to the seas and oceans through streams and rivers, minerals such as salts are dissolved in the water and do not evaporate causing the salinity of seawater to increase over time. The vast majority of salt produced today for human use is mined from seas and lakes which evaporated long ago, leaving vast quantities of chemical sedimentary rock known as rock salt.

The Enterprise mine, a copper ore mine located at Mt Isa Mines, is currently Australia's deepest mine. Its shaft is 1,900m deep.

Open cast mining is mines that are dug on hilly areas. It is quick easy way of providing coal but it damages the wildlife and can be quite dangerous. The way open cast mining is carried out is that they stay on the same ground level when digging. This is done by moving the dug out soil along so slowly more area has been dug out. This will continue until all the coal has been removed and then the mine will be filled up again and left to grow naturally.

Yes it it used today!!! For mining and demolishing old buildings making towns, paths, but mostly for MINING!!!!!

Iron, Fe, is mined from the ground it is extremely reactive with oxygen and can burn at high temperatures.

Humans rely on iron or its alloys, steel and stainless steel, to make durable strong objects. Examples - bridges, car bodies, metal furniture, building supporting beams, engines, weapons. The list would be very long.

The iron is protected from oxygen by paint, grease, plastic coating, metal coating or zinc coating.

It's not. it is chosen. just like you. you are the new chosen one. the matrix has you neo

Pyrite is used to make jewelry, semiconductors, and cathodes for lithium ion batteries. It has been suggested as material for photovoltaic solar panels, and was used in radios prior to the vacuum tube (it is still used in crystal radios as a mineral detector). In the past, it was used to manufacture iron sulfate and sufuric acid, and is now used commercially to produce sulfure dioxide, commonly used in the paper industry.

It prevents loops in a switched network with redundant paths.

The color of a mineral's streak is the color of the powdered mineral. It may be different from the color of the mineral itself due to impurities or the crystal structure affecting light reflection. This property is useful in mineral identification.
