Finland has released a study on the effects of gravel extraction on groundwater supplies. Within this report, it says that many heavy metals and easily degrading organic substances as well as viruses and bacteria are retained reletively well in the natural areas but retention was weaker in areas where the gravel had been exposed.
This video focuses on training requirements and best practices for dredging operations that extract and process sand and gravel. Dredging is an aggregate mining activity, an operation usually carried out at least partly underwater, with the purpose of extracting material from the bottom and then sending it to the shore by pipelines or pontoonmounted conveyor belts.
Keywords: Assessment, Impacts, Gravel mining, Sand mining, Environment. 1. Introduction Sand and gravel mining refers to the actual process of removal of sand or gravel from a place of their occurrence (Langer, 2003). The places of sand and gravel occurrence are oceans, rivers, streams, flood plains or hills and mountains.
Sand and Gravel Mining Process. Once an aggregate deposit is found, the first step in extracting the sand and gravel is to clear the surface of vegetation and topsoil and dig a pit. Since the water table is so close to the surface in Nebraska, the pit fills with water and forms a lake.
The increase in the demand for sand and gravel for construction and other purposes such as flood control has placed immense pressure on the environment where sand and gravel resources occur. This study was carried out to determine the environmental effects of sand and gravel mining in Luku, North central Nigeria, using field observations and laboratory analysis of soil samples.

Factors determining the siting and design of tips and stockpiles. The nature of the quarried material. unstable materials do not compact to form a stable surface and are more likely to fail or flow stable materials compact to form a stable surface. Stable materials can become unstable if one or more of the other factors below are causing an issue.
#0183;#32;River sand and gravel are industrial construction materials that are an essential part of rivers. Therefore, an important issue is to determine how to produce the maximum economic benefit of river sand and gravel resources under the premise of ensuring river stability and health, as
Scaling: Miners must approach loose rock from above, and scale from a safe location. When there is a danger of falling, miners must be properly tied off. When scaling loose rock, use a long scaling bar. ciii Frontend loaders, power shovels, or draglines may be used to scale hazardous rock.
Sand mining is a practice that is used to extract sand, mainly through open pit. This demand is exalting at alarming rates a result of ever increasing building construction projects and other infrastructural development. In the view of high demand there is illegal means for sand extraction.
