This study aimed to investigate the health effects of dust exposure on people living close to quarry sites and compared them with those who live far from the quarry sites. A cross-sectional comparative study was conducted …
The soil was observed to be more acidic during the rainy season as the pH values increased. Compared to the dry season, the analysis indicates that the effect is more evident at the quarrying point. The negative environmental effect is more prevalent in the older quarry due to the length of operation.
1. They can permanently disfigure the environment. Many limestone quarries can be seen from a great distance away. In many cases, the quarrying work creates changes to the natural landscape that cannot be repaired. That means once the quarry has been established, it often becomes a permanent part of that community, …

The study have demonstrated vividly that quarry mining effects on health and environment among workers and residents in the communities is a function of distance from active mine sites. 1. Introduction Within the last decade, environmental and health concerns have gained prominence throughout the …
This paper presents controlling of the environmental effects of air shock wave due to blasting in quarry mines. The aim of this study is to predict the air overpressure due to blasting, in order to protect the dwelling area adjacent to the quarry. Prediction of air overpressure is important for mine operators who utilize blasting to ensure their blasts …
