argues that the dependencies created by the mining industry and mine housing policies while a mine is operational causes serious societal problems when it closes
applies the concepts of place attachment, asset-based development and social disruption
will be of interest to students and scholars researching the social impacts of mining and the extractive industries, social geography and sustainable development, as well as policymakers and practitioners working with mine closure or social impact assessments.
