Protection of earth is a reason to deny mining permits. But it isn't a reason to delay mining permits.

Delay is just beauracratic inefficiency.

The delays are usually due to the time it takes to evaluate whether or not the mining can be done without too much damage, what actions would be taken to mitigate that damage, and how effective that would be.
