Toxic waste occasionally leaks to nearby ponds. That is option 1.

<h3>Wastes from mining</h3>

Mining is a process used by geologist to extract valuable minerals that are naturally deposited within the earth.

Example of such minerals are:

  • metals and coal,

  • oil shale and gemstones,

  • limestone and chalk,

  • rock salt, potash, gravel, and clay.

While mining processes are carried out, it leads to the generation of waste products such as:

  • ferrous and nonferrous metal ores,

  • sulfur ores,

  • apatite-nepheline concentrates,

  • coal wastes and halite flotation wastes.

These mining wastes can leak into the nearby ponds after a heavy down pour leading to the contamination of the ponds.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

--

One of the amazing things about alternative energy resources is that they are renewable, unlike fossil fuels. The use of fossil fuels, such as coal and natural gasses, can contribute a lot to pollution since fossil fuels are usually processed through factories and plants. With water, wind, and solar energy, it is much easier to gain electricity with those methods rather than others, and much cheaper.
