In addition, Euromines, the European metals and minerals mining industry, promotes different activities in relation to sustainable development and environmental protection.[3] Euromines requires its members to perform an environmental impact assessment, as well as a continuous update of effective environmental practices. However, the guidelines developed by Euromines call for environmental protection from exploration to mine closure, while the impact of mining on water ecosystems does not end with extracting operations (Euromines, 2012).[4]
