Answer:
The extraction, preparing, and switch of minerals unmistakably harm nature. mining bothers and
harms the land, and the managing and switch of minerals contaminate the air, soil, and water.
Despite the truth that infection may be controlled and harmed terrains can be reestablished, these
remedies are steeply-priced. mining has defiled a big number of kilometers of streams and
waterways in the united states. Rocks that are wealthy in minerals frequently include high
groupings of overwhelming metals, as an instance, arsenic and lead.
2.What is the difference between metallic and nonmetallic minerals? Provide two examples from
each category and discuss their uses.
Answers:
Metallic mineral are those minerals which can be liquefied to get new items and are
excellent transmitters of warmth and electricity. Examples of metal minerals are iron, aluminum,
and copper. non-steel minerals are the ones which don't yield new objects on liquefying.
Examples of non-steel minerals are sand, stone, salt, and phosphates.
Mining
1.How are minerals extracted from the Earth and processed?
The profundity of a particular mineral keep comes to a decision if surface or subsurface mining
can be applied. In surface mining, minerals are separated near the surface. The subsurface
mining separates minerals too someplace down within the floor to be evacuated by surface
