An excellent aspect of this book is the use of case studies that are presented in these chapters. They provide insights into some of the environmental and related economic issues in various types of mining operation...The quality of writing is excellent.

Appropriate public policies and sound environmental practices by mining companies require both an understanding of how mining affects the environment and what can be done to reduce the magnitude of these effects. This book contributes to this understanding by assembling information that heretofore has been widely scattered.
