What is Rocks and Hard Places: The Globalisation of Mining (Global Issues Series) about?

This book by an experienced activist and researcher depicts the changing world of international mining. Mineral consumption is outstripping the capacities of both communities and fragile ecosystems to cope with bigger and bigger mines. This book identifies mining's key players. It shows where the key minerals are mined, who processes them and where they end up. It both challenges the mining corporations' recent public relations offensive and makes concrete proposals for the forms of mining extraction needed if local communities are to be respected and the environment protected.
