The transition from open pit to underground mining intensifies water-related hazards such as Acid Mine Drainage (AMD), groundwater contamination, and aquifer depletion, threatening ecological socio-economic sustainability. This study develops an Inclusive Disaster Risk Reduction (IDRR) framework using a Multi-Dimensional (MDR) approach holistically assess water in China’s regions, integrating environmental, social, governance, economic, technical, community-based, technological dimensions. A Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) model combining the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) Technique for Order Preference by Similarity Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) evaluates risks, enhanced Z-number Delphi AHP (ZFDAHP) spatiotemporal dynamically weight across temporal (short-, medium-, long-term) spatial (local global) scales. Applied Sijiaying Iron Mine, AMD (78% severity) depletion (72% emerge dominant exacerbated climate change impacts (36.3% dynamic weight). Real-time IoT monitoring systems AI-driven predictive models demonstrate efficacy mitigating while gender-inclusive governance community-led protection address socio-environmental gaps. underscores misalignment between static regulations advocating Lifecycle Assessments (LCAs) transboundary agreements. Policy recommendations prioritize adoption, carbon–water nexus incentives, Indigenous knowledge integration align transitions with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 6 (Clean Water), 13 (Climate Action), 14 (Life Below Water). research advances holistic strategy harmonize mineral extraction security, offering scalable solutions global regions facing similar challenges.
