Environmental Impacts and Occupational Safety of Mining Activities

Environmental studies and the occupational safety of mining activities are concerned with the study, assessment, and follow up of mining projects through the evaluation of their environmental impacts that result from mining processes and handling in order to protect and preserve the environment. These studies are also intended to find ways and strategies to develop and improve the occupational safety of those working in the mines.
