"Industrial mining: Mining for precious metals is an economic driver in both developed and developing countries, but the environmental effects can be costly. When holes are dug and components extracted, the resulting landscape is affected by soil erosion, and can experience the collapse of ecosystems knocked off balance. Mined areas are rarely restored. For example, the Sukinda Valley in India contains more than 95 percent of the India’s chromite ore deposits. The constant mining efforts have left it as one of the most polluted places in the world."
