Globally, "green mining" is the term used to describe the extraction of metals and minerals from the earth while upholding social responsibility and the environment. Deforestation, water contamination, and the dissolution of communities are just a few of the negative repercussions of mining that have historically been connected to it. A more sustainable mining industry is intended to be created by minimising these effects. The green mining market includes numerous techniques and equipment that reduce the negative environmental effects of mining operations. One of the main forces propelling the global green mining sector is the increasing demand for the minerals and metals required to produce clean energy gadgets like solar panels, wind turbines, and electric vehicles. As the world transitions to a low-carbon economy, it is projected that demand for specific minerals and metals would increase considerably. Its increase must be tempered with sustainable mining practises to minimise negative environmental and social repercussions. The global green mining industry is home to a variety of companies, including large international mining conglomerates and smaller, specialised businesses. Numerous of these companies have incorporated a number of green mining strategies into their operations in an effort to decrease their negative environmental impact. Global demand for green mining as a whole signal a shift towards a more responsible and sustainable mining industry. By placing a high premium on environmental and social sustainability, mining companies can satisfy the rising need for minerals and metals while also contributing to the planet's future sustainability.
The COVID-19 epidemic has had a substantial effect on the world market for green mining. The pandemic hampered international supply networks, which reduced demand for metals and minerals needed in numerous sectors. A considerable fall in worldwide mining activity resulted from this decline in demand combined with fewer mining operations due to lockdowns and restrictions. The pandemic also brought to light the significance of sustainability and ethical mining methods, with many businesses realising the need to give environmental and social sustainability first priority. As a result, there is now a greater emphasis on green mining methods and technology as businesses look to minimise their environmental impact and the effects of their operations on nearby communities. In addition, the epidemic has sped up the implementation of digital technology in the mining sector, with remote monitoring and automation technologies playing a bigger role now. These innovations have made it possible for mining businesses to keep working while lowering the chance of COVID-19 spreading among employees. Overall, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a conflicting effect on the world market for green mining. It has decreased mining activity and decreased the demand for minerals and metals, but it has also brought attention to the need for ethical and sustainable mining techniques and technology. The need for minerals and metals is anticipated to rise as the world begins to recover from the epidemic, and the green mining sector will be essential to sustainably supplying this demand.
