1. GEOLOGICAL
Hazards

2. A geologic hazard or geohazard is an
adverse of geologic condition capable of
causing widespread damage or loss of
property and life. These hazards are
geological and environmental conditions
and involve long-term or short-term
geological processes
What is geological
hazards?

3. Examples of Geological Hazards
LANDSLIDES
MUD FLOWS
ROCK FALLS

4. LANDSLIDES
A landslide is the down-slope movement of earth material,
under the influence of gravity, due to ground failure.
The impact of a landslide can be extensive, including loss of life,
destruction of infrastructure, damage to land and loss of
natural resources. Landslide material can also block rivers and
increase the risk of floods.

5. MUD FLOWS
A mudflow, also known as mudslide or mud flow, is a form of
mass wasting involving fast-moving flow of debris and dirt that
has become liquified by the addition of water. Such flows can
move at speeds ranging from 3 meters/minute to 5
meters/second.
Mudslides can negatively impact sewage disposal systems and
water treatment plants by sending more sediment and debris
into the system than the plant can take out. They also damage
fisheries and can kill off the wildlife in said waters.

6. ROCK FALLS
When people, buildings, vehicles, or highways are in their path,
these rockfall events can cause property loss, personal injury, or
even loss of life. Rockfalls can also create unexpected hazards
on roads, causing damage to vehicles who unexpectedly drive
over or into recent rockfalls.
Rockfalls occur where a source of rock exists above a slope
steep enough to allow rapid downslope movement of dislodged
rocks by falling, rolling, bouncing, and sliding.

7. MITIGATING
MEASURES
avoid mining
reduce mineral
exploitation
reducing pollutant
emissions
early recognition and
avoiding areas subject
to rockfall

8. avoid illegal mining
If this ruins our
minerals and has
lots of negative
effects towards
our environment,
why do it?
Mining is an inherently
invasive process that can
cause damage to a
landscape in an area much
larger than the mining site
itself. The effects of this
damage can continue years
after a mine has shut down,
including the addition to
greenhouse gasses, death of
flora and fauna, and erosion
of land and habitat.

9. reducing pollutant emissions
If this ruins our
minerals and has
lots of negative
effects towards
our environment,
why do it?
So the first step to
preventing potential natural
disasters is reducing
pollutant emissions. It is also
necessary to make states
more resilient by looking
forwards and preparing
countries to deal with
climate-related risks, from
adopting conservation and
restoration measures to
improving infrastructure.

If this ruins our
minerals and has
lots of negative
effects towards
our environment,
why do it?
Early recognition and
avoiding areas subject to
rockfall are the most
effective means of reducing
rockfall hazards. However,
avoidance may not always
be a viable or cost-effective
option, especially for existing
development, and other
techniques are available to
reduce potential rockfall
damage.

11. avoid mining
If this ruins our
minerals and has
lots of negative
effects towards
our environment,
why do it?
In mineral exploration region, minerals
are mainly exploited by means of slope
cutting and explosion. The rough
exploitation will induce geographical
disasters. In order to protect the safety
of life and property of mine workers,
geological hazard prevention and
control has become an important
measure. An important principle of
prevention and control of geological
hazards is to adjust measures to local
conditions combined with rational
development of natural environment
with ‘prevention as the main principle
and ‘governance’ as the supplement.
