Explanation:

A gold mine is a place where gold is extracted from the ground. Because of its value, the extraction of gold generates economic and social benefits all over the world, which has made this activity one of the most important in the world. There are also many ways of extracting this mineral.

The best argument will be the one that indicates the greatest concern for the safety of the citizens of that city or town. If there is a dam, it should be repaired in the best possible way. This will ensure the safety of the town and guarantee that the mine continues to be used, to generate economic benefits. Then, if the gold mine continues to be used even if it is not productive as it was, it must be repaired. However, in order not to make large expenditures and have a low budget for repair, I can choose to repair only the most urgent or necessary part.

So, the strongest argument is the one that refers to security of people. This helps me to make a final decision, to ensure that there will be no accidents and guarantee that the mine will be used to generate money. So my decision is to repair it but choose to repair only the most urgent parts, to still stay within the budget.
