They believed that more could be said with words and non-violent acts, than with violence. The history of protest dates back thousands

have we learned about the mining for copper that could minimise environment impacts of mining in the future?” Copper is a metal used for jewellery, copper wiring, electrical motors, engines, but mainly used in electrical generators and powers. This is because copper has a high thermal and electrical conductivity. Hence, copper is essential in today’s society. The mining for copper in Queenstown, Tasmania was founded in 1883, but first started in 1896. Copper mining led to the formation of acid

Two mining companies, Northern Dynasty and Anglo American, have been fighting with the tribes in Alaska over the Bristol Bay mine. This is because that the Alaskan tribes are worried that the mining activity of the two mining companies would harm the First Nation land. However, the mining activity will bring lots of benefits to the USA economy. In my opinion, Bristol Bay mine development should be continued. First, the Bristol Bay mine would be the biggest mine in North America. More specifically

the Berkeley Pit is of the most serious environmental problem. A former open pit copper mine, Berkeley Pit, is now one of the most closely observed disaster in our nature today. The cause of the development of the chemical disaster traces back to the 1950s. As the Industrial Revolution took place, mining took a significant role in city life. According to the Berkeley Pit Public Education Committee, “in 1955, copper prices

A company called PolyMet wants to build a copper-nickel mine in Northern Minnesota. It would infringe on Superior National Forest, where many species and geographical elements would be disrupted. PolyMet plans on mining for 20 years, and afterwards will do its best to repair and return the land to its original state. There are numerous debates and arguments over whether they should be allowed to mine on the land. The state owns the land, but the company owns its mineral rights. (BC Hydro, 2013, p

drinking water; for not only our generation, but for the next ten generations too. Yet this could be a reality with sulfide mining. In 1999, PolyMet proposed a copper-nickel mine in Northern Minnesota. The proposed sulfide mine would chemically extract desired metals from the sulfide rock. The sulfide mining proposals and exploration activities to date are focused on extracting copper, nickel, platinum, palladium and gold, which make up only a very small portion of the ore. This process has never been
