A perfect introduction to sustainable mining for those new to the
subject or those who require some revision, this book provides a
basic overview of international sustainable mining practices since
1992, with particular emphasis upon practices in the Americas, Asia
and Europe. The text begins by addressing issues such as the volume
of waste generated by mining, mine closure planning and the
environmental impacts, and then goes into specific detail in the
following areas: cleaner production practices in Australia;
blasting impacts and their control in the US; minimizing surface
water impacts; minimizing groundwater impacts; use of environmental
indicators in mining; and emerging mining technologies that
minimize environmental impacts. The text contains relevant examples
and case histories for ease of revision, and also includes a
chapter on Best Mining Practices for Sustainable Mining and
sub-chapters on small-scale mining, tailings pond management and
hazardous waste management.
