The correct option is B.
Clearing land for mining involves removing the various types of plants and other materials that will serve as hindrance to the operation of a mining plant. Clearing of land for mining will significantly reduce the diversity of the living organisms that are living in that particular area and this will throw the ecosystem into an imbalance state. Clearing a land for mining will remove both plants and animals species from the area that is been cleared.
