Modern Mining is Responsible Mining: How the Industry Prioritizes Environmental Stewardship

Reading Time: < 1 minute

As an essential industry, miners deliver the raw materials necessary for modern society. From our roads, houses and cars to computers, electric vehicles and solar panels, minerals are the backbone of our economy.
The mining industry is dedicated to being environmentally responsible, while continuing to provide the raw materials that make modern life possible. Once minerals are located and extracted, mining companies work to restore the land to its original state or better than they found it. No mining project is finished until the land has been fully reclaimed. The mining industry has reclaimed over three million acres of land since 1980. And it doesn’t stop with the land – the industry closely collaborates with local communities to ensure the smartest, safest and most respectful use of resources.
The mining industry has an open relationship with local farmers, working hard to ensure their land and livestock aren’t affected by mining. The industry also organizes volunteer opportunities and makes millions of charitable donations every year.
