Sustainability Mining: Water for Mining, and Mining Water
2014This chapter examines the multifaceted nature of the relationship between water and mining. Several perspectives are offered. Mines are located to gain access to the mineral, but this is always in the context of water. The conditions under which the water has carved a catchment are strongly influenced by the climatic regime and the geological ...

Mining and Sustainable Development
2014This chapter critically assesses the role that mining and minerals have in the wider context of sustainable development. In particular, we assess the role of law (and of international law in particular) in balancing the economic interests of the mining activity, with the requirements of social justice and environmental protection.

Early efforts to address sustainability within the mining industry (GMI and ICMM) did not create a common set of protocols by which individual operations could be clearly ranked on their performance. The Mining Association of Canada’s Towards Sustainable Mining (TSM) program provides protocols to address biodiversity, tailings management, crisis ...

Sustainability in mining models
World Pumps, 2012Mining and the extraction of mineral resources from the earth is in no way sustainable. However, there are areas in which the industry can be improved and work toward a more sustainable model. These improvements can have a direct impact on a community's social, environmental and economic well being.
