To assess the impact of such action on agriculture and plant biodiversity, two methods including measurement of the particulate matters (PM
Keyeord: air, quality, quarry site 1. Introduction The process of getting useful stone from a quarry is known as quarrying. The methods and equipment used in quarry depend on the purpose for which the stone is extracted. Different quarrying activities have different impacts on air quality (Alaturca, 2012).

and ‘explosion suppression.’ For the large mines and quarries sector, planned inspections focused on ‘roads or other vehicle operating areas’ and in the small mines and quarries sector the hazard focus was on ‘structural integrity’ and ‘air quality or dust’. These targeted assessments follow a
The principal airborne hazards in the mining industry include several types of particulates, naturally occurring gases, engine exhaust and some chemical vapours; the principal physical hazards are noise, segmental vibration, heat, changes in barometric pressure and ionizing radiation. These occur in varying combinations depending on the mine or quarry, its depth, the composition of the ore and
The specific objectives are to assess the socio-economic impacts of the mine on the local people and examine its environmental effects on soil, water resources, vegetation cover and air quality in
