Case studies presented across global south such as Asia, Africa, and Latin America, are the first of its kind which presents a holistic and deep insight (into instead of about?) about this pressing environmental issue. In this book, thirteen chapters present various issues ranging from gold, silver, chromium, lead, coal mining, and its impacts on ambient environmental (soil, water, biodiversity) degradation and ultimately on(healthy living environment instead of human health living? ) human health living in the surrounding area. For this purpose, (different methodologies have been used) they have used different methodologies( for example instead of like using) like using (a) water quality index, hydro-chemical characterization, numerical simulation to identify the extent of pollution caused(by instead of due to?) due to mining activities. Later it (the book) advocates the usage of advance mining technologies such as advanced oxidation processes, decarbonization technologies and a biotechnological approach for the treatment of wastewater being generated due to mining activities or minimizing overall environmental degradation. Finally, it emphasizes on assessing risk zone delineation, vulnerability analysis using cutting edge tools like numerical simulation, GIS and remote sensing, which will help designing robust management plans and sustainable transitions, critically helpful for policy makers or decision makers. . 606 $aMining engineering 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aPollution 606 $aMining and Exploration 606 $aEnvironmental Management 606 $aPollution 615 0$aMining engineering. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aPollution. 615 14$aMining and Exploration. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aPollution. 676 $a622 700 $aMarrugo Negrete$b José$01784350 701 $aJonathan$b M.
