2020-8-21 Mineral exploitation contributes significantly to economic growth and development in most world economies. In Africa, Ghana is the second largest gold producer, contributing to about 5.7% of the country’s GDP. The mining sector in Ghana consists of both small-scale and large-scale mining, each of which has varying environmental impacts. This paper provides an exposition on the environmental

2021-1-17 What is Strip Mining? Surface mining, counting strip mining, mountaintop removal mining and open-pit mining, is a wide classification of mining where soil and rock covering the mineral source (the ‘overburden’) are gotten rid of, unlike underground mining (or deep mining) where the overlying rock is kept in place, and the mineral is taken out through shafts or tunnels.
