Water pollution and degraded landscapes, for example, have long been noted as the inevitable consequence of the operations of ASM. Such insistence on the institutional absences of ASM zones has dovetailed with a lack of academic attention to some of the ‘golden’ mining practices taking place there. Thus, this work seeks to (re)examine the topic of ‘development’ in ASM. The findings suggest that small-scale miners, contrary to popular perception, could be caretakers of the environment. In addition, emphasizing how the dynamic interplay between resources and environmental demands may come to support public policy, the findings illustrate, contrary to the dominant narrative, how the activities of small-scale mining operators can engender a win-win situation for both mining companies and local mining communities.. | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | 关键词 | Artisanal and small-scale mining; Water pollution; degraded landscapes; extractive industry; mining comp | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-658-39565-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-658-39564-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-658-39565-0Series ISSN 2731-0531 Series E-ISSN 2731-054X | issn_series | 2731-0531 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Fachmedien Wies |
