[4/5] Une fois extraits, les minerais riches en arsenic comme ceux de Chelopech sont fondus dans des usines qui dégagent dioxyde de soufre et trioxyde d’arsenic, ce dernier étant cancérigène. La pollution ne s’arrête donc pas à la mine : elle se prolonge jusqu’à l’aval. #geography #MiningImpact

[3/5] On néglige souvent les conséquences environnementales des mines. Pour extraire cuivre ou cobalt, on utilise de l’acide sulfurique, qui génère des bassins de résidus acides. Pour l’or, le mercure est toujours courant. L’eau, elle, est consommée à des niveaux extrêmes. #geography #MiningImpact

[2/5] En Suisse, le réseau électrique s’étire sur 214.000 km, ce qui représente des quantités colossales de cuivre, d’aluminium ou d’acier. Les batteries et panneaux solaires exigent aussi du nickel, du lithium, du cobalt ou du graphite. Chaque fil ou cellule a un impact. #geography #MiningImpact

Not surprised. Visited an artisanal #gold mine in #Mali, was interested in #mercury use but also asked where they got their #drinking #water. They led me to an open well just m from where they process soil. The bucket they drew up? See pic, frog included. 💧 #MiningImpact #EnvironmentalJustice
