Abstract: The gold mining industry provides employment and mineralsthat are in demand. Both large-scaleand artisanal and small-scale gold mining have resulted in environmental degradation in different parts of the world. Artisanal and small-scale gold mining is a growing livelihood activity that is undertaken mostly in rural areasin Kenya because of the limited employment opportunities as well as the need to supplement farm earnings. However, this has led to land degradation and this threatens food security and the livelihoods of a majority of the population who reside in these areas as they depend on small-scale and subsistence agriculture.
