“ You must be the change you wish to see in the world .” – Mahatma Gandi

AS CUSTODIANS OF MUCH of the world ’ s mineral resources , the mining industry has a responsibility to ensure that the benefits of mining can be seen and felt by the countries in which they operate . In the July edition of Mining Global , we go inside how Anglo American manages community relations and what the company is doing to engage with local communities to improve the overall success of mining activities worldwide .
Also this month : we discuss the most innovative underground mining machines in the industry today ; the top 10 junior mining companies taking 2014 by storm ; and the most cost-effective and reliable project management software for mining companies .
Lastly , we spoke with Goldcorp about its Corporate Social Responsibility Plan and how the company is working to improve mine site closure and reclamation protocols .
Enjoy the issue and be the change you wish to see in the world .
