description Sustainably managed mining is based on three dynamic control factors—sociopolitical, techno-environmental, and techno-economic—that drive innovation and engineering toward cheaper and more efficient solutions.

More stringent social and environmental protection measures, however, will advance responsible and efficient mining.
