The correct answer is option d. all of the above.

The mining causes the dust emission, which increase the amount of the particulate matter in the environment and causes the air pollution. The pollutants may include sulfur and nitrogen compound, which may cause acid rain and drainage. The removal of the material from earth may lead to erosion of the soil and may cause land slides.
