ECONOMY AND BUYING HABITS CONCERNING MINERAL EXTRACTION
Introduction
Mining has been providing materials which are used in the building of structures, manufacturing of machines and creation of tools which are used to sustain world population demands. Currently, it is estimated that techno sphere mass is almost thirty trillion tones (Miller, G.T. and Spoolman, S. 2014). Countries with mineral deposits and support mining activities have attained substantial economic growth however there are several environmental effects associated with this activity especially emission of hydrocarbons.
Economy and buying trends associated with the Mineral extraction
The economic performance associated with mining generates growth through expansion and extensive human development. The analysis of trends and related patterns that relate to the subject is influenced by several environmental factors. The human activities indicate that nations with mineral deposits reported maximized growth compared to countries without minerals (G. Tyler Miller & Scott E 2017). The sun’s heat energy and earth energy balances to maintain geochemical balance
The minerals are formed as result of geochemical processes which mineral extraction activities interferes with profusely. The availability of minerals is controlled geological, environmental, economic and associated environmental factors. The mineral reserves and deposits are affected by recycling activities, consumption and stockpiles. The numbers of chemicals that are mostly used in today’s world are eighty six which are exploited and derived from salt bearing materials from sea beds. Mineral extractions and other resources from forests to fossil sediments result in large or minute changes such as pollution.
Conclusion
The mineral extraction process has resulted in major impact on landscape and the environment which is directly associated with disposal of water products. The smelting activities have resulted in environmental challenges. There are several methods used to extract minerals, which are process land destruction and the immediate setting through noise and dust. The processing of mineral extraction is dangerous to human life. The impact of mineral exploitation according to recent data indicates that mineral extraction products such as pollutants should be controlled and it is a contributing factor to cost of end products.
