Abstract: Climate change is having a profound effect on global industries, and mining operations are no exception. Increased temperatures, extreme weather events, and changing precipitation patterns pose significant challenges to the efficiency and sustainability of mining activities. This paper explores the impacts of climate change on mining operations, examining both the physical and operational disruptions caused by shifting climate patterns. Furthermore, it highlights the adaptation strategies that mining industries can implement to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change. Through a review of current practices and case studies, this paper aims to provide actionable insights for the mining industry to build resilience in the face of climate change.
