The effects of mining in Africa have left large-scale devastation when companies do not honour their responsibility. Because mining areas are left in an unsustainable condition, plant species and wildlife are threatened and these areas are at risk of becoming lifeless wastelands.

Africa’s major metal mines are inside or within 10 km of a protected area, considerably more than the 25% in both Asia and South America (Duran´ et al. 2013). The immediate, relatively local environmental impacts of mining per se may be dwarfed by the potentially far more wide-ranging impacts of mining infrastructure and socioeconomic change.
Located in Mali, West Africa, this diamond mining project covers an area of 90,70 km² and is 6 km long. The exploration permit granted on 31 June 2017 is for a
economies. In Africa, Ghana is the second largest gold producer, contributing to about 5.7% of the country’s GDP. The mining sector in Ghana consists of both small-scale and large-scale mining, each of which has varying environmental impacts. This paper provides an exposition on the environmental impacts of mining activities in Ghana.
Mining operations are poorly monitored and virtually no consideration is given to short-term health effects and environmental impact. (4) Civil Strife(lack of agreement) Central Africa has been plagued with violence since the mid-90s.

Although there are some regulations in place that are intended to minimize the damage, they are not enough to allow mining and wildlife to exist in harmony, especially in cases where the regulations are difficult to enforce.

Mining has played an integral part in the development of South Africa since the first diamonds were found in the Orange River in 1867. The subsequent gold rushes which followed forever changed the history of our country and propelled South Africa as a global player in the mining industry.

Mining production output slumped 24,7%, the biggest quarterly drop since the second quarter of 1967. The strike also hurt output in manufacturing, which makes up about 15% of the economy locally and about 40% of global production of the precious metal, which is used for catalytic converters in vehicles and is a key source of hard currency for South Africa.
While mining is still a labour intensive exercise overall, things are changing, and various technologies are being used to mine more efficiently and with less risk underground. As one of the most prominent mining areas in the world, South Africa is home to many examples of cutting-edge mining technology.
