Abstract

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is a superior tool use for assessing environmental changes in the opencast limestone mining region. In mining and its development, there is currently pervasive global concern focused on the need to move the mining sector to a more sustainable environment. In limestone mining, the waste deposit ratio is too high. To minimize waste extraction activities, hyperspectral remote sensing imagery utilized to identify the purest form of calcite in the examination area. This report reviewed papers on the possible impacts of the mining region's limestone quarrying activities on the atmosphere and climate change. Results on the impact of limestone mineral spectra identification for the Indian condition are summarized and discussed. According to the effect of limestone mining in the region, it is proposed that all stakeholders, in particular the owners of mines and cement plants, should pay the requisite attention to the environmental issues prevailing throughout the area. It leads to perform the necessary actions to maintain the ecosystem environmental clearness, reforestation, implement the water treatment on the region and sanitary landfill waste disposal, create awareness about the pollution levels.
