Understanding geological and mining conditions has always played a crucial role in determining possible spatial development optioUnderstanding geological and mining conditions has always played a crucial role in determining possible spatial development options for cities and villages. Knowing where mass movements occur, or where traces of current or past mining are evident, always poses a challenge when constructing buildings. This type of information not only helps to select appropriate structural solutions for the planned structures, but also mitigates the risk of damage through the implementation of rational spatial management policies. The scale of damage resulting from geodynamic phenomena in urban areas can be effectively mitigated through mechanisms designed to prevent such events. Local authorities responsible for shaping the development of specific areas should always base their actions on a solid foundation of knowledge about the challenging geological and mining conditions identified in those areas. The proper implementation of these tasks requires the diligent work of the local government body responsible for recording such conditions, as well as subsequent activities involving periodic observations of identified geodynamic phenomena.

Purpose: The main objective of the study was to analyse the trend of changes in accident rates in the Polish mining sector against the accident rates registered in other industries and EU countries. Design/methodology/approach: The study used a three-stage comparative analysis of accident rates for fatal and non-fatal accidents at work occurring in the mining industry and the 20 most important industries defined by NACE (Statistical classification of economic activities in the European Community) in EU countries. The method of analysis was based on the principle: from the general to the specific, at the first stage analysing and averaging the accident rates occurring in EU countries among the 20 industries and comparing them with the same rates occurring in Poland. The second stage of the analysis compared accident rates in mining and construction in EU countries, and the third stage analysed average accident rates in mining and construction in Poland. Such studies were carried out in order to diagnose the accident rate and, on this basis, to diagnose the trend in this area. Findings: The analysis carried out allowed us to establish that the negative trend of increasing accident rates in the Polish mining sector does not coincide with changes in accident rates occurring in the 20 most important sectors of the economy of the European Union countries under consideration. The increase in the accident rate and fatal accident rate recorded in Poland in recent years is not present in the same analysed period in other industries, including the mining sector in EU countries or the highly accident-prone construction sector. The analysis made it possible to conclude that the increase in accident rates is not a general trend, but only a feature of the Polish mining industry. Such results point in the direction of the necessary research to be carried out in further stages aimed at identifying the causes of the increase in accident rates in the Polish mining industry and seeking effective remedial measures. Research limitations/implications: The research and analyses carried out have clearly indicated that the increase in the number of accidents in the mining industry is an isolated phenomenon in comparison with the number of accidents in other sectors and countries of the European Union, therefore further, in-depth research to be carried out in the Polish mining industry must focus on diagnosing the causes of this state of affairs, which should be sought within mining companies by analysing safety culture, carrying out in-depth analyses of accidents at work or examining the effectiveness of preventive health and safety measures. Practical implications: The results of the conducted research and analysis can be used by entities such as universities, scientific and research institutes, as well as occupational health and safety supervisory institutions in the mining industry. The presented results diagnose the state of safety in the mining industry and indicate the direction of further research. Social implications: Safety is one of the basic human needs, so any research and analysis in the field of occupational health and safety has a potentially positive impact on the increase of the quality of life of societies, public and industry policies. They therefore have high social implications. Originality/value: The publication uses an original research method based on a three-stage analysis of the accident rates of industries and countries in the European Union.

Przedsięwzięcia w zakresie eksploatacji węgla kamiennego mogą istotnie negatywnie oddziaływać na stan wód powierzch niowych. Druga aktualizacja planów gospodarowania wodami w dorzeczu określa cele środowiskowe do poszczególnych jednolitych części wód powierzchniowych w bieżącym cyklu planistycznym. W celu przeprowadzenia oceny oddziaływania przedsięwzięcia na możliwość osiągnięcia celów środowiskowych niezbędne jest zebranie i analiza zarówno ogólnodostępnych wyników monitoringu państwowego, jak i danych pozyskiwanych w ramach prac inwentaryzacyjnych i eksperckich. Uniemożliwienie osiągnięcia celów środowiskowych w zakresie wskaźników fizykochemicznych i biologicznych, a także warunków hydromorfologicznych, jest podstawą do odmowy wydania decyzji o środowiskowych uwarunkowaniach realizacji przedsięwzięcia. Uzyskanie odstępstw (tzw. derogacji) warunkowane jest między innymi zastosowaniem działań łagodzących negatywne skutki oddziaływań przedsięwzięcia na stan jednolitych części wód. W artykule przedstawiono sposób prowadzenia oceny odziaływania przedsięwzięć górniczych na wody powierzchniowe zgodnie z aktualnymi wymaganiami prawnymi.

Mining projects involving hard coal extraction can have a significant negative impact on the status of surface waters. The second update of the River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) defines environmental objectives for individual surface water bodies within the current planning cycle. To assess the potential impact of a project on the achievement of these environmental objectives, it is necessary to collect and analyze both publicly available data from national monitoring systems and information obtained through inventory and expert studies. Failure to achieve environmental objectives related to physicochemical and biological indicators, as well as hydromorphological conditions, constitutes grounds for refusing to issue an environmental decision for the implementation of the project. The granting of exemptions (so-called derogations) is conditional, among other things, on implementing measures that mitigate the negative project's impact on the status of surface water bodies. This article presents a methodology for assessing the impact of mining projects on surface waters in accordance with current legal requirements.

Women in Mining (WIM) organizations have emerged globally as key platforms advancing gender equality in the traditionally male-dominated mining and critical raw materials sectors. They promote diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) through mentoring, leadership programs, scholarships, ass well as research, bridging academia, industry, and policymakers. Evidence from international reports (IGF &IISD, 2023; McKinsey, 2023; World Bank, 2024) indicates that gender-diverse teams are associated with higher productivity, innovation, and improved ESG performance, although data remain heterogeneous and often correlational. WIM initiatives also enhance workplace safety and social acceptance (licence to operate), while corporate sponsors benefit through stronger ESG compliance, talent retention, and reputational gains. The perception of WIM activities varies: academia highlights knowledge gaps; industry and NGOs recognize their strategic potential but warn against tokenism. In Poland, the establishment of a national WIM association aligns with the EU's Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA) and the just transition agenda. It aims to empower women in mining and processing, address the STEM talent gap, and support key enterprises such as KGHMin developing future-oriented competencies. Integrating with the international WIM network, WIM Poland could strengthen innovation, safety culture, and policy coherence-contributing to both energy security and sustainable economic growth.

The spatiotemporal variation of vegetation cover in the mining areas of YSR Kadapa district, Andhra Pradesh, using Remote Sensing and GIS techniques. By focusing on the years 2014, 2018, and 2023, the analysis provides insights into changes observed in water bodies, bare soil, sparse vegetation, moderate vegetation, and dense vegetation. The results reveal dynamic trends in land cover categories, highlighting the environmental impact of mining activities in the region. A significant decline in water bodies is observed, with the area reducing from 3.48 km2 in 2014 to 1.91km2 in 2023. This decrease raises concerns about the potential degradation of aquatic ecosystems, reflecting the ecological consequences of mining operations. The fluctuating pattern in bare soil areas, increasing from 37.64 km2 in 2014 to 40.37 km2 in 2018 and subsequently decreasing to 34.65 km2 in 2023, indicates the complex nature of land use changes and reclamation efforts in the mining regions. The study highlights a significant decrease in sparse vegetation from 6.88 km2 in 2014 to 4.43 km2 in 2018, followed by a substantial increase to 13.49 km2 in 2023. This suggests the resilience of vegetation in certain areas or potential reforestation initiatives. A consistent decline in moderate vegetation is observed, with the area decreasing from 5.72 km2 in 2014 to 4.25 km2 in 2023, indicating the lasting impacts of mining on plant health and ecosystem stability. Fluctuations in dense vegetation areas are noted, with a decrease from 2.31 km2 in 2014 to 1.72 km2 in 2023. This decline may signify habitat disruption and environmental stress resulting from mining operations. The consequences of these spatiotemporal changes in vegetation cover extend beyond the immediate landscape, impacting the ecosystem and environment. The reduction in water bodies and vegetation, coupled with an increase in bare soil, suggests potential biodiversity loss, soil erosion, and altered hydrological patterns. These changes pose significant challenges, affecting local fauna and flora and contributing to broader ecological imbalances. The study emphasizes the importance of employing sustainable mining practices to mitigate these adverse effects, ensuring the long-term environmental health and resilience of the region. Sustainable practices could include measures to protect and restore water bodies, prevent soil erosion, and promote reforestation and habitat conservation. By adopting such practices, the mining industry can help preserve biodiversity, maintain ecosystem services, and support the overall environmental sustainability of the YSR Kadapa district.

The increasing demand for minerals has placed huge pressure on the mining industry to increase production, which consequently affects the environment, and, thus, contributes to climate change. Coal extraction has been reported to be a major contributor to global CO2 emissions, mainly due to the burning of fossil fuels. As a consequence, the frequency and severity of extreme climatic events have also increased throughout the world. Mining is essential for the development of society but contributes to climate change. On the contrary, extreme weather events and rising temperatures associated with climate change affect the overall productivity of mining companies. To develop an understanding of climate change and the mining nexus, the present study aimed to conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis, focusing on the keywords “Mining Impact” AND “Climate Change”. A total of 4814 documents from the SCOPUS database were analyzed using the Bibliometrix library of R software. The results of this analysis are presented considering trending keywords of the selected topic, the pattern of publications, global citations, and countrywide contributions. The findings from these results suggested that adopting scientific mine closure practices and incorporating green engineering or approaches in mining can be helpful in reducing the impact of mining activities on climate change.

The study intends to evaluate how mining companies and their host communities perceive the impacts of mining operations and to ascertain if there are significant differences in how both parties perceive the impacts of mining in Nigeria. The study was carried out in twelve states in Nigeria and covered the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria. Data was collected through a questionnaire and interviews carried out separately with community members and company representatives. The study investigated ten categories of mining impacts such as socioeconomic, environmental, health, physical and so on. To gauge the perceptions of the respondents on the different impact categories, the Likert scale was used. The Student’s t-test was then used to determine whether there are statistically significant differences in perceptions in each impact category. The study findings showed significant differences in how communities and mining companies perceive the impacts of mining. Out of the ten impact categories assessed, statistically significant differences in perception were observed in nine categories. The only category where there was no significant difference in perception between mining companies and communities was related to conflicts arising from mining operations. Shrinking these perception gaps is key to ensuring sustainable mining practices in Nigeria.

In the second decade of the 21st century, mining, especially coal, began to be perceived as an activity that negatively contributes to climate change, including global warming. This has caused the world to turn towards alternative energy sources, i.e. wind, solar, hydro or biomass energy. The European Union in particular has placed great emphasis on this aspect, which has resulted in mining, often unfairly, being perceived as something undesirable. As a result, educational mining faculties, including in Poland, are struggling with fewer and fewer potential pupils and students every year. The aim of the HoloGEM project, which is carried out in an international Polish-Turkish-Portuguese group, is to reverse this trend and make the recipients aware that mining is necessary to obtain all raw materials, without which it is impossible to produce many specialized equipment. However, in order to do this, it is also necessary to use modern, attractive forms of teaching. The HoloGEM project developed an innovative curriculum for educating the fundamentals of mining, covering issues in geology, underground mining, open-pit mining, mineral processing, and occupational health and safety. In addition to traditional content, in line with teaching guidelines in this area, VR materials, presentations with artificial intelligence were also developed, and the entire course was placed on an educational platform with Open Access. For each of the issues, sets of attractive forms of verification of the acquired knowledge have also been developed. The works use the latest solutions that are attractive to today's youth.

W drugiej dekadzie XXI wieku górnictwo, zwłaszcza węglowe, zaczęło być postrzegane jako działalność przyczyniająca się negatywnie do zmian klimatycznych, w tym globalnego ocieplenia. Spowodowało to, że świat zwrócił się w kierunku alternatywnych źródeł energii, tj. energia wiatrowa, słoneczna, wodna, czy energia z biomasy. Zwłaszcza Unia Europejska położyła na ten aspekt duży nacisk co spowodowało, że górnictwo, często niesprawiedliwie, postrzega się jako coś niepożądanego. Skutkiem tego, edukacyjne kierunki górnicze, w tym w Polsce, z roku na rok borykają się z coraz mniejszą ilością potencjalnych uczniów i studentów. Celem projektu HoloGEM, który jest realizowany w międzynarodowym gronie polsko-turecko-portugalskim jest odwrócenie tego trendu i uzmysłowienie odbiorcom, że górnictwo jest konieczne do uzyskiwania wszelkich surowców, bez których niemożliwa jest produkcja wielu specjalistycznych urządzeń. Aby tego dokonać trzeba jednak zastosować także nowoczesne, atrakcyjne formy nauczania. W ramach projektu HoloGEM opracowano nowatorski program edukacji podstaw górnictwa, obejmujący zagadnienia z geologii, górnictwa podziemnego, górnictwa odkrywkowego, przeróbki surowców mineralnych oraz bezpieczeństwa i higieny pracy. Oprócz tradycyjnych treści, zgodnych z wytycznymi nauczania w tym zakresie, opracowano także materiały VR, prezentacje z udziałem sztucznej inteligencji a całość kursu umieszczono na platformie edukacyjnej z dostępem Open Access. Do każdego z zagadnień opracowano także zestawy atrakcyjnych form weryfikacji pozyskanej wiedzy. W pracach zastosowano najnowsze rozwiązania, które są atrakcyjne dla współczesnej młodzieży.
