Mining requires the clearing of large parts of land. Often, the area is completely deforested.
Along with deforestation, mining activities require transportation facilities. Construction of roads can cause serious habitat fragmentation.
The noise caused by mining activities contributes to immense noise pollution in the vicinity.
Dust coming from mine sites can cause air pollution.
The dust from mine sites can seriously affect vegetation around the area by coating the leaves and preventing exchange of air. The plants can even be suffocated to death due to this.
