Section: Danny Kennedy Title: Gold Mining: Environmental Destruction Program Code: Location: Berkeley, CA Date: 4 Oct 2000 National Broadcast: Yes Available Formats:
CD (1) Tape (1) Transcript (1) Speaker(s):
Gold is history's most coveted and celebrated element. For the Pharaohs of Egypt it had mystical status, functioning as the ultimate secular sacred object. The quest for gold propelled Columbus, Pizarro and others into a genocidal frenzy. Today gold mining, a major industry, continues unabated. And more often than not, indigenous people are affected. In the U.S., 70% of mining is on native lands. From Guyana to Kyrgyzstan, widespread use of cyanide is having major negative environmental consequences. And it's not just an overseas problem. In Colorado, one cyanide spill killed a seventeen-mile stretch of the Alamosa River, leaving taxpayers with a $170 million cleanup bill.
Danny Kennedy
Danny Kennedy became an environmental activist in his native Australia at the age of twelve when he participated in a movement that stopped the construction of a large dam. He is a founder of Project Underground, the Berkeley-based organization that works with indigenous communities threatened by the mining and oil industries. He is a producer for Australian Public Radio and a member of the Action for Solidarity and Equality in Environment and Development.

While mining underpins the industrial development in many regions, it frequently has had and continues to have serious environmental consequences which include the destruction of natural habitat, changes in river regimes, impact on energy and water demand and chemicals accidents. UNEP is dedicated to working with all stakeholders including the mining industry to ensure the needed ambitious environmental and social targets are met through consideration of the full policy mix of regulatory measures, economic incentives and voluntary initiatives.

Virtual Environments Program
The Virtual Environments (VE) Program is concerned with the effective application of VE to industrial and scientific three-dimensional modelling and computer simulation tasks. A VE is created when a combination of one or more technologies (3D graphics, acoustics, haptics) is used to produce surroundings that is either familiar to a viewer, such as inside a building, or enables a viewer to be placed in a surrounding that is normally inaccessible, such as a particle accelerator. The main benefit of VE is user interaction in real-time with little awareness of the human-computer interface.
A number of research projects made up the VE Program:
  • Visualisation of Ore Grade Estimations (VISOR) 3D Interactive Environment for Geophysics (3DINFO) Collaborative VE (COVE) Haptic Workbench Software (HWS) Haptic Workbench Mining Applications (HWMA)

Research focused on developing toolkits and software frameworks that would be of benefit to the mining industry in visualising geostatistical computations. This emphasis was later extended to supporting research that combined haptic and visualisation technologies, and to investigating their cross-industry capabilities.

Peat Mining Impacts Environmental Impacts before the collapse fragmentation and destruction of swamp ecosystems
loss of filtering function of the swamp

spread of aquatic weeds
spread of European Carp
destabilisation due to changed hydrology
increased risk of hazards such as erosion and fire
increasing dredge point increases wave erosion
According to the National Parks and Wildlife Service: Mining to date has opened up an extensive area of swamp with an extensive free water area now replacing what was a shrubland/rushland peat deposit. The free-water body now dissects the swamp and fills the basin created by the removal of a considerable depth and volume of peat.... Fragmentation and destruction of the swamp ecosystems has occurred and will be accelerated if peat mining was to continue. Changes in water regimes in the swamp as a result of milling potentially also threaten the continued existence of the small populations of endangered plants listed on Schedule I of the Threatened Species Act, and if mining continued at increasing rates of extraction, physical destruction of the populations could result within the term of any renewed leases.

mining, Metallurgy And Mining: Terms And Concepts
Related Category: Metallurgy And Mining: Terms And Concepts Associated with mining are many environmental concerns. Large-scale excavation is often necessary to extract a small amount of ore. Ore extraction disrupts the topsoil and can displace local animals and plants, and sometimes native human populations. Runoff can contaminate nearby water sources with pollutants such as the mercury and sodium cyanide used in gold mining. Waste materials and smelters can cause sulfurous dust clouds that result in acid rain. Abandoned strip mines have often been used as unregulated landfills for hazardous wastes. Several pieces of legislation in the United States, the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act (1977) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, or Superfund Act (1986), address these issues, but enforcement has been difficult. Another act that affects mining in the United States is the 1872 Mining Act. This now controversial act, which was originally designed to encourage settlement of the West, allows mining companies to purchase land for $2.50 per acre. In the late 20th cent., despite many efforts at reform, the law and the $2.50 per acre price still stood, despite the fact that the ore contained in the land could be worth billions of dollars.

MINING-ENVIRONMENT AND PUBLIC INTEREST OBJECTIONS by Kirsten Matthews June 1999
On 21 December 1998 the Full Court of the Supreme Court of Western Australia delivered its decision in Re Warden Calder ; Ex Parte Cable Sands ( WA) Pty Ltd. The Full Court was asked to consider the relevance of objections based on environmental and public interest grounds in relation to applications for mining leases.

The Full Court of the Supreme Court has considered this issue on two previous occasions. On both occasions the Court held that the Mining Warden had the power to consider objections based on environmental and public interest grounds. In the current case Warden Calder, in the first instance, fo!lowed the precedent set by the Full Court of the Supreme Court, and held that he could consider objections on environmenta! and public interest grounds. The Applicant made an application to the Court for a Writ of Prohibition to restrain the Warden from considering objections based on these grounds. Justice Steytler delivered the leading judgement in this case. Justice Steytler states that:
