Challenges and Opportunities in Government Mining Policies: Towards a Sustainable Future

In order to promote sustainable mining practices, this research looks at the possibilities and challenges within India's government mining policy. Four hundred thirty-six people, including academics, citizens, and mining industry experts, filled out a structured questionnaire to provide us with this data. Policy lucidity, sustainability initiatives, implementation hurdles, mineral exploration efficacy, government incentives, and private sector engagement were some of the important factors explored in the research. The hypotheses were tested using statistical methods such as ANOVA and correlation analysis. There is a robust correlation between the difficulties in implementing regulations and the efficiency of exploration, and the findings show that government policies have a substantial influence on sustainable mining practices. The study also discovered that private sector involvement in mineral prospecting is greatly affected by government incentives. The results stress the need of community involvement, strong incentive systems, and persistent policy enforcement in promoting ethical mining. In order to ensure India's mining industry continues to be viable in the future, the report suggests that public and private entities work together more closely.
