With regards to the above two statements on mining companies having to clean up water and restore land, both statements are True.

Mining companies cause a lot of damage to the environment as they change the way the landscape is and also the ecosystem.

As a result, it is required that they:

  • Restore the land they use as best as possible to its original type
  • Clean up water resources that were polluted and replace the soil they disturbed

This would go some way in ensuring that the damage to the environment is minimized from mining.

In conclusion, both statements are True.
