Résumé/Sommaire :

The mining sector is one of the pillars of economic growth, although it still has a negative impact on the environment. Mines have a significant impact on the environment in Morocco, both ecologically and socially. Mining as a source of income and economic development also has crucial consequences. In environmental terms. The opening of mines often leads to the destruction of local ecosystems. From this, deforestation, biodiversity loss and habitat fragmentation are frequent consequences of mining. In addition, mineral extraction can result in air, water and soil pollution due to the use of toxic chemicals and the release of fine particles. This has disastrous effects on water quality, the health of local populations and aquatic ecosystems. Mines also have significant social impacts. Local communities may be displaced from their ancestral lands, losing their livelihoods and their connection to their natural environment. Mine workers may be exposed to hazardous working conditions and high health risks. The Moroccan government has taken measures to mitigate the environmental impacts of mines, such as adopting stricter environmental regulations and promoting more sustainable mining practices.
