Causes :
After people do the mining and they're satisfied with their gold . They just leave the dirt that they dig out and they dont care about the effects . So the tailings has gone and is mixed into the water ( rivers, etc). Or they just directly throw it at the river or other unappropiate places .
Effects :
The effects are that the copper contamination and acid rock will destroy the rivers, land surfaces and groundwater. So the mining waste are spreaded all over the water and fishes die and there are people deceased. People also found Mercury, antimony and arsenic which are poison. Or other than that the waste is spreaded into the village .
Solutions :
People should throw their waste in the right place or just use it for digging in another place . People should also make a law about not destroying or throwing stuff in the water or just basiclly people should not litter.
