We hope to raise awareness of the complexity of issues at stake and begin the necessary process of critique-of self and of the industry in which an engineer chooses to work. This book aims to alert engineering students to the price paid not only by vulnerable communities but also by the natural environment when mining companies engage in irresponsible and, often, illegal mining practices. If mining is to be in our future, and if we are to have a future which is sustainable, engineering students must learn to mine and support mining, in new ways-ways which are fairer, more equitable, and cleaner than today.…
