WHAT ARE THE MOST<br />
MINERALS AND META<br />
While there are people who object to mining,<br />
those who support it are actively campaigning<br />
for responsible mining in their areas. The world is<br />
full of resources that we can use to advance our<br />
technology and provide a supply to our daily needs,<br />
so people should see that there is importance<br />
in mining. However, governments and private<br />
companies should only allow practices that includes<br />
rehabilitation of the mine. If they tolerate mining<br />
companies who just leave mines as they are after all<br />
the resources have been taken away, communities<br />
will have to suffer from different consequences later<br />
on.<br />
Minerals mined are used for different purposes, but<br />
they all have one thing in common: everybody needs<br />
them. These minerals are mined and processed<br />
later on so that the public can use them for the<br />
production of the latest technology, for vanity<br />
purposes and even for the toothpaste we use to<br />
brush our teeth with. You see, mining is crucial for<br />
human kind and these minerals mined have played<br />
important roles in our lives now.<br />
