Innovations in Mining by Tata Steel

Modern mining practices today are far removed from those even 20 years ago. The advent of new technology has transformed the way we mine the earth, as well as the way we can give back to the environment when mining is complete. By using Integrated Mining practices companies can go the distance in creating sustainable systems for mining that have the potential for near zero impacts on land use, surface and groundwater pollution, air pollution, and loss of biodiversity. This move is being welcomed and supported not only by governments, but by the mining industry itself - as witnessed by the numerous awards that are focused on sustainable practices.
