Abstract : This paper aims to experiment with how gold mining exploitation impacts on junior high school attainment, pupils are introduced to gold mining exploitations in siguiri province particularly the kintinia district region of Kankan. The world's largest problems today are child mortality in mining exploitation zones and children leaving or abandoning education with no or less qualifications. Depiste this due to poverty alleviations in Africa countries ,parents are not able to supports children’s spending. To attain this purpose, we did a field investigation and collected some sample data as mixed gender employed in gold mining zones. However, the sample comprised 98 observations, high school’s 70 pupils, and 28 pupils' parents. we used to collect quantitative primary data, questionnaires, and interviews. The findings show that mining activities contributed to the rural pupils; leaving schools with no or fewer qualifications become a scourge for humanity. We suggested that is one of the sources of inter or extern immigration to pupils’ poor school attainment. These gaps recommended that schools responsible in kintinia and traditional leaders; Parents of pupils should be discussing with the local authorities policies to emphasize and see the importance of child's education and for ensuring the success of their children. we suggested that future research is basic on the schools where abandonment is abundant in favor of mining activities. To give an overview of positive mining impact activities, the national policy must insert the job market or help them find a job that is not carried out; For pulpid who cheer up on the examination to enter the university; to preserve the health and against dangers in mining areas. The lack of practicing mining activities in emerging countries; These results illustrate that mining impact imprecates the hypothesis that on pupils' school attainment even in rural or urban. Besides, the findings of school attainment involvement in the district of Kintinia education policies have conversed about children abandoning study and endorsed by the director of education of the Kankan region to end dropout and delinquency in the educational system in the impacted region.
