Abstract

"The natural resources of the Barents Region are of strategic importance for Europe. One intensively developing sector is mining, which will bring new opportunities to the region, but which will also cause changes in the environment. The Conference on Best Environmental Practices in the Mining Sector in the Barents Region was held in Rovaniemi in April 2013. The Conference targeted the environmental issues connected to the mining sector and promoted best environmental practices for mines in the Barents Region. The overall goal for the Conference was to increase awareness of the challenges in the mining sector and to exchange information on assessing and managing social and environmental concerns. These Conference proceedings present the Concept Note on Common Challenges of the Conference and the abstracts of the presentations"--Norden i-Library website.

Abstract

Engineers are often called on to answer technical questions and solve problems while in the field. It's not always feasible to bring along the bulky reference materials needed to research engineering-related topics. Now there's a simple solution. The SME Mining Reference Handbook is a practical field reference for mining and minerals engineers who spend time away from the office. With its comprehensive store of charts, graphs, tables, equations, and rules of thumb, the handbook is the essential technical reference for mobile mining professionals. It's also a convenient desk reference for in-of

Abstract

This edited volume explores the link between natural resources and civil conflict, focusing especially on protest and violence in the context of mining and the extraction of minerals. The primary goal of the book is to analyze how the conflict-inducing effect of natural resources is mediated by inequality and grievances. Given the topicality of the current boom in mining, the main empirical focus is on non-fuel minerals. The volume is structured in four parts.

Abstract

"This authoritative reference presents the fundamentals of mining related geotechnical risk and the latest advances in sensing and data communication for preventing accidents and providing early warnings. Opencast mining operations involve huge quantities of overburden removal, dumping, and backfilling in excavated areas. Substantial increases in the rate of accumulation of waste dumps in recent years has resulted in greater height of dumps and also has given rise to the danger of dump failures as steeper open pit slopes are prone to failure. These failures lead to loss of valuable human lives and damage to mining machinery. This book presents the most recent advances in gas sensors, methane detectors, and power cut-off systems. It also introduces monitoring of the gas strata and environment, and an overview of the use of Internet of Things and cloud computing for mining sensing and surveillance purposes.... This volume covers the latest findings and technology to prevent mining accidents and mitigate the inherent risk of the activity."--

Abstract

M.V. Lomonosov (1711–1765) was a Russian scientist and writer, a true Enlightenment polymath. His 1763 First Principles of Metallurgy ranks among the best-sellers in the history of science and is an interesting example of how knowledge was shared between Saxony and Russia in the early 18th century. This volume makes an annotated edition of the full work available for the first time in German. M.W. Lomonosov (1711-1765) war ein russischer Naturwissenschaftler und Dichter, ein Universalgelehrter der Aufklärung. Mit seinen Schriften zur Geologie und zum Berg- und Hüttenwesen prägte er die Wissenschaften maßgeblich. Sie demonstrieren auf anschauliche Weise den Wissenstransfer zwischen Sachsen und Russland im frühen 18. Jahrhundert. Erstmals liegt nun eine vollständig übersetzte und kommentierte Edition vor.
