😷 Ah, the classic: "Air pollution is bad and kills people, who knew?" 🤔 This groundbreaking revelation is brought to you by the esteemed institution of stating the obvious, starring The Culprits: humans, wood, and fossil fuels. 🌍🏭 Thanks for the trivia reminder, now back to breathing through a mask! 😜

Environmental Impact of Gold Mining

Gold mining can bring severe pollution hazards, including:
• Water Pollution – Cyanide & mercury contamination threaten aquatic life & human health.
• Air Pollution – Dust and toxic fumes harm air quality & respiratory health.
• Soil Degradation – Heavy metals like mercury & arsenic poison the land, harming agriculture & wildlife.
• Biodiversity Loss – Destruction of natural habitats leads to extinction of vulnerable species.
• Health Risks – Exposure to toxic chemicals causes neurological damage, cancers, and more.
• Acid Mine Drainage – Harmful acids leak into water systems, causing long-term damage.

A stark reminder: The Cadia gold mine has been convicted of breaching dust limits five times between 2021-2023, with one test showing nearly 6x the allowable dust limit. Newmont Corporation has been fined $350,000 in penalties.

It’s time for stricter regulations and sustainable mining practices!
