Water is critical for all types of mining. In some locations, significant rainfall can lead to acid runoff from mine drainage, tailings piles, and surface mines, polluting streams and rivers. In drier locations, the mining and processing of ores can deliver a one-two punch to local water supplies, both using up groundwater and toxifying aquifers.
