Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Mining affects both health and the environment.
Because mining pollutes the environment and releases hazardous gases, it harms the environment and human health. The miners are susceptible to respiratory diseases because of the dust and toxic chemicals they breathe. Mine roof collapse, flooding, and coal mine fires are all continual threats to miners. Due to mining, the local water sources get polluted. Deforestation is caused by mining activity. Additionally, mining activity causes erosion, sinkhole development, biodiversity loss, and contamination of soil, groundwater, and surface water due to chemicals from the mining process.
