The proceedings in this work present 60 papers on mine and mill tailings and mine waste, as well as current and future issues facing the mining and environmental communities.
The objective of this text is to provide information on mill tailings and mine waste, and to discuss current and future issues facing the mining and environmental communities.
This collection of symposium papers covers a wide range of topics on rock fragmentation, from carefully documented case studies to attempts, for example, at fractal representation of the fracture process itself.
Covering the subject of ground control in mining, this volume looks at such topics as: rock-slab theory of ground pressure in work and practice, the role of in situ-stress in mine planning, and the status of the art of cable bolting.
This text provides a process oriented discussion of the theory, methodology and philosophy of geologic and mine modelling using two commercial software packages: Techbase, a leader for mineral exploration and modelling bedded deposits; and Lynx, for modelling geology.
A study on rock mechanics in salt mining, this work includes coverage of the exploration and opening of salt mining, deformation and failure of the salt, strata mechanics and control for different mining systems, and stability analyses of the mine structures.
This book develops an analytical framework for understanding United States foreign agricultural policy through a "e;state interest"e; approach, and describes and analyses seven cases of food policy decisions through this perspective which shows that decision makers sought on most occasions to utilise US food resources to accomplish foreign policy objectives.
