Question

how will hill mining affect the water availability​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mining affects fresh water through heavy use of water in processing ore, and through water pollution from discharged mine effluent and seepage from tailings and waste rock impoundments.

Mining uses water primarily for mineral processing, dust suppression, slurry transport and employees' needs. ... In many cases, especially with underground mining, water needs to be pumped away from a mine site, which can reduce the levels of ground water, deplete surface water or cause pollution to local rivers.
