— The elevation of the A7 coal seam outcrop is 1400 m, 20 ~ 25 m from A9. The thickness of coal seams A7 and A9 is approximately 2 m. The thickness of coal seams A10 and A11 is less than 0.8 m, and the spacing between two layers is small. After nearly 40 years of mining in five coal mines, the extent of coal seam mining has reached 200 m.
In this study, the impacts of mining iron ore particularly resulting from open-cast mining are covered with special reference to environmental issues (such as Air, Water, Soil), and health hazards on the population of the mining region. The Study area is confined to the Ballari District of Karnataka State. III.
