Abstract

Sukinda Valley of Odisha is well-known for its all-embracing chromite ore deposits. The rate of chromite ore extraction, although mining is being carried out in this region since independence, has been amplified during 1980’s in consequence of its sky-scraping demand and subsequently its surrounding environment is also deteriorating day by day. This study will focus various destructive effects of chromite mining in Sukinda Valley on its immediate surroundings and will try to mitigate these problems as far as possible.
