Sustainable mining is a crucial paradigm shift in the extractive industry aimed at harmonizing resource extraction with environmental, social, and economic considerations. sustainable mining framework, highlighting principles and strategies for achieving sustainable outcomes. The framework encompasses various aspects, including environmental stewardship, social responsibility, economic resilience, and governance. Environmental stewardship involves minimizing environmental impact through responsible resource extraction, reclamation of disturbed lands, and adoption of clean technologies. Social responsibility focuses on engaging with local communities, respecting human rights, and fostering inclusive development. Economic resilience entails optimizing resource use, promoting local economic development, and ensuring long-term viability of mining operations. Governance mechanisms, such as transparent decision-making processes and regulatory compliance, are essential for effective implementation of the framework. By adopting a holistic approach that balances environmental, social, and economic objectives, the sustainable mining framework aims to create value for all stakeholders while Sustainable mining refers to the extraction of mineral resources in a manner that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It involves integrating economic, social, and environmental considerations into mining practices to minimize negative impacts on ecosystems, communities, and economies, while maximizing long-term benefits. Ultimately, sustainable mining holds the promise of not only preserving natural resources for future generations but also fostering resilient communities and advancing global sustainability goals. This abstract outline key principles and methods for achieving sustainability in mineral exploration activities. It emphasizes the use of advanced technologies such as remote sensing, geophysical surveys and drone technology to minimize surface disturbance and reduce the need for invasive exploration techniques. Sustainable mining exploration methods in limestone deposits, especially in ecologically sensitive areas like the Maihar District in Madhya Pradesh, require a delicate balance between resource extraction and environmental preservation.
