Evidence impacts metal mining Arctic systematic map

This research paper outlines a protocol for a systematic mapping of evidence regarding the social and environmental impacts of metal mining activities in Boreal and Arctic regions.

• Mining activities—spanning from prospecting and exploration through to decommissioning and repurposing—can affect social and environmental systems through direct and indirect, positive and negative means. While mining can provide societal benefits, it can also lead to conflict regarding land use, both above-ground and sub-surface.
• Boreal and Arctic regions are particularly sensitive to development impacts. In these areas, aboriginal human communities and native ecosystems are often subject to multiple stressors, such as pollution and climate change.
• The paper establishes a protocol for systematic mapping of evidence on mining impacts, adhering to the ROSES reporting standards and the Collaboration for Environmental Evidence Guidelines and Standards for Evidence Synthesis in Environmental Management.
