Abstract

The mining industries' contribution to economies has been limited to the boomtown's impact of short-term initiatives. However, the bane of mining on resource management has been a recurring theme. This study recognizes the need to investigate the interrelationship among legitimate pressure, resource dependence, and green practices in the quest for sustainable resource management. The study categorized legitimate pressure into three distinct groups (coercive, normative, and mimetic pressure) and resource dependence into intra and inter-organizational resource dependence to assess the interrelationship among these constructs. We use both the structural model and the fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) approach and 320 respondents from the Ghanaian mining industry.
