| Summary: | The objective of this paper is come up with proposals that help to understand the risks that mining companies must consider in order to reduce the negative impacts that they currently cause, since apart from the effects that are not con-sidered during the operation of the project, they generally do not carry out an appropriate closure at the end of the project . As a result of the research, the proposal of some indicators that could be applied and that would help to reduce the social and environmental impact is presented; besides reducing the amount of open-pit mining projects . The normative framework of Mexico is used as an example because it has a broader scope for the purpose of this work . It is concluded that the mining activity strengthens and creates economic structural dependencies for most of the countries that practice it, for which it expresses the need to suspend this practice gradually because it harms the environmental, social and economic aspects .
