Abstract
When minerals are extracted and processed, mining waste is produced. The first stage, known as extraction, is the first layer of sacking of minerals. Typically, blasting is used to do this, which produces a significant amount of garbage (soil, debris, and other material). This is usually only concentrated within the periphery of a mine rental place and occasionally on public land, and is useless to the industry. The amount of waste produced increases with the size of the mine. Because they produce far more trash than underground mines, opencast mines are consequently more pollutant-intensive. Mining waste not only pollutes the environment, but it also has an adverse effect on life. But mining, materials, and minerals are the symbols of the growth of industrialization. Countries' growth depends on industrialization. So both the environment and the economy are the most important pillars of civilization. The categorization of mining waste must be done properly as per its nature to enhance the utility of materials and avoid pollution. Hence, in this paper,an attempt is made to categorise the different kinds of waste produced from iron mining and suggest proper waste management techniques based on research papers. Mining waste is very hazardous, so it is very, very necessary to divide and segregate the waste as per its nature for environmental safety and the use of the waste material as a smart building material.
