ABSTRACT (SECOND PART) The physical environmental socio-economic analysis produces a description about environmental, cultural, politic, social and economic characteristics of the current mining. It also describes the studied mines, the product extraction process, and its final disposition at the gold plant. This way, we get a database done since primary and secondary information, which are fundamental pillars to continue with this environmental study. To identify the negative environmental consequences in “Los Andes-Sotomayor” that gold mining has produced, we used tools such as: the environmental impact charts; the Leopold chart; and the study information. So, results were placed in the DOFA chart (weaknesses, opportunities, strengths, and threats) It is a fundamental basis to consolidate an environmental mining proposal. The final step produces a proposal, and some strategic projects to solve the environmental problematic and minimize the negative impacts that gold mining has produced. This way, we have a complete environmental mining diagnostic about strip mining in “Los Andes-Sotomayor” Thanks in advance! :D I'm writing a thesis abstract. :) If you can give me some recommendations I'll be so grateful! :)
