Role of Green Issues of Mining Supply Chain on Sustainable Development

K. Muduli and A. Barve

Abstract—All the activities involved in extraction, production and distribution contribute to environmental concerns. Traditional supply chains which were only acting as links that connect organization’s inputs to its outputs have extended their operations to meet various challenges of lowering costs, ensuring timely deliveries, reducing adverse environmental impacts and waste disposal to satisfy regulators, customers and environmental advocacy societies. The economy is often given priority in policies and society and environment are neglected by the extractive industries. However these three factors are interconnected and balance between these three is essential to attain sustainable development. This study discusses the role of Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) to achieve Sustainable Development, and identified various challenges faced during greening the mining supply chains.

Index Terms—Challenges to environmental management program, Green supply chain management, Mining sector,Sustainable development.
