Abstract:

Socioeconomic transformation is a fundamental shift in a society's economic and social structures, often involving significant changes in the way people live, work, and interact. It typically involves a transition from a traditional or agrarian economy to a more modern, industrialised or service-based one. This transformation can be driven by various factors, including technological advancements, globalisation, political changes, and social movements. The key characteristics of socioeconomic transformation are: Economic Diversification, urbanisation, industrialisation, Technological Advancements, Social Changes, Improved Living Standards, etc.

Mining, a fundamental economic activity, has historically played a pivotal role in shaping societies. However, its impact extends beyond economic gains, influencing social structures, cultural landscapes, and environmental conditions. The study examines the economic benefits of mining, including job creation, revenue generation, and infrastructure development. It also explores the social implications, such as population growth, urbanisation, and changes in social dynamics.
