Abstract:
Sand mining activities on agricultural land and rivers in Bambang Village, Wajak District, Malang Regency, have been ongoing for a long time. The sand mining activities on private agricultural lands, besides being illegal, also damage the land and the environment. In addition, these sand mining activities are also unsustainable. This study aimed to analyze and formulate sustainable alternative livelihoods of sand miners on agricultural lands in Bambang Village, Wajak District, Malang Regency, based on local resources. The study method was carried out using a combination of case studies and sur

Abstract:
<strong>Tin and columbite have been extensively mined on the Jos plateau since the time of the colonial era. Tin and columbite mining were characterized by many unsustainable practices that adversely impacts on the environment. The study examines the nexus between the unsustainable practices associated with the mining activities, the livelihood opportunities it provided to the residents and the environmental degradation that results from the mining activities in the study area. The study is based on field visit to some of the active and abandoned mine sites and reclaimed mine sites. During the

A field survey was undertaken in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia (Borneo) to assess the extent and practices of Artisanal and Small-scale Gold Mining (ASGM), and to measure sediment and mercury flows in the provinces’ rivers. More than forty mining operations were visited in six of the provinces largest river basins during June, July and August of 2008. Based on the survey results, this thesis estimates that 43,000 small-scale gold miners in Central Kalimantan produced 13.3 tonnes of gold in 2008 (426,000 troy ounces - ozt) worth approximately 362 million CAD (based on 2008 international gold pr

Dryland areas in Ethiopia encompass pastoral and agro-pastoral areas in the country and have long been regarded as peripheries especially in economic terms. Expansion of large-scale agricultural investments (land grabbing) in these areas is the current government’s focus and resulting in the loss and unsustainable utilization of natural resources. For instance, foreign investment in Ethiopia’s forestry sector is currently limited, but agricultural investments that affect forests largely through forest clearing are common in the country.

Though ASM has gained considerable acceptance, one reason for its unsustainable is because of slope collapses that occur affecting the health and safety of miners and surrounding community. In rock mechanics, slope stability analysis and design has received significant attention in large scale mining to mitigate the risk of slope collapse but minimal implementation in artisanal and small-scale min
