摘要

The sustainable development challenges facing the bauxite mining industry have become a critical concern for mining companies, governments and NGOs. Considering the scale of bauxite mining activities, it is not surprising that such activities have a wide range of social, economic and environmental impacts. Bauxite is mined at more than 70 sites in 25 countries. Most of the deposits are shallow and the mining methods - open pit mining using scrapers, shovels front-end loaders, trucks, etc. - are all very similar. Differences in the thickness of the topsoil, overburden and bauxite layer lead to varying mass flows and land use. A selection of social, economic and environmental effects associated with open pit mining are presented and discussed. The paper focuses on the quantification of social issues related to employment opportunities and effects on the indigenous population. Further emphasis is placed on the classification of bauxite mining economies in terms of income structure. Finally, descriptive indicators to analyse the environmental effects in the context of land use and diversity of ecosystems are presented and put into concrete terms.
