Molybdenite deposits of the Ôkawamé mine

environmental effects of gol-e-gohar iron ore mine on groundwater of the area

gol-e-gohar iron ore mine of sirjan in southern part of iran is a large open pit that operates below the groundwater table and during mining operation, dewatering is required to prevent operation processes from flooding. current operation is going on by digging wells in or out of the pit and pumping to prevent flooding. as a result of the former dewatering operation a vast deep cone of depressi...

the study of molybdenite types related to the ore processing plant of the sar cheshmeh mine

molybdenite occurs in five forms in the sar cheshmeh porphyry copper deposit, namely, (1)-veinlets with quartz-molybdenite, (2)-veinlets with quartz-molydenite that were filled with pyrite, (3)-veinlets with quartz-molybdenite-pyrite–chalcopyrite, (4)-molybdenite veinlets with very low quartz and (5)-disseminated molybdenite grains. because of their large size, the veinlet-related molybdenite g...

Kinetic Analysis of Molybdenite Oxidation

Use of machine learning techniques to analyse the risk associated with mine sludge deposits

Sludge deposits resulting frommine extraction activities and accumulating in the proximity of production centres have an important potential impact on their surroundings. This potential impact needs to be evaluated by quantifying the risk of an accident on the basis of a joint study of factors affecting the probability of occurrence, environmental, populational and infrastructural vulnerability...

Depth-dependent geochemical and microbiological gradients in Fe(III) deposits resulting from coal mine-derived acid mine drainage

We evaluated the depth-dependent geochemistry and microbiology of sediments that have developed via the microbially-mediated oxidation of Fe(II) dissolved in acid mine drainage (AMD), giving rise to a 8-10 cm deep "iron mound" that is composed primarily of Fe(III) (hydr)oxide phases. Chemical analyses of iron mound sediments indicated a zone of maximal Fe(III) reducing bacterial activity at a d...
