| Abstract: |
The Indian mining industry indicates
almost the full range of extractive mineral products. Mineral deposits are
worked in areas, which are considered to be ecologically sensitive and
environmental conservation is generally a major barrier for successful
development of mines. This paper overviews the mineral production in India. It
focuses on the key environmental issues and outlines a range of environmental
impacts that are relevant to the planning of a modern mine. This paper
identifies variety of mining operations and mining techniques to minimize
environmental impacts, which cannot be standardized and no single element of
mining can minimize environmental impacts.
