The equiatomic germanides REPtGe with the heavy rare earth elements (RE) have been reinvestigated with respect to platinum-germanium ordering. The compounds were prepared by arc-melting of the elements followed by annealing for two weeks at 1070 K. The REPtGe germanides crystallize with the TiNiSi-type structure, space group Pnma. The structures of ErPtGe (a = 692.01(5), b = 432.03(4), c = 753....

THE MINING REPORT Luisa Moreno, managing partner and analyst with Toronto-based Tahuti Global, says there are many things investors must pay attention to when it comes to critical metals projects, but nothing should trump metallurgy. That's because no two deposits are precisely the same, and having a clear understanding of how to economically recover those metals and get them into end-users' ha...

Structures placed on hillsides often present a number of challenges and a limited number of economical choices for site design. An option sometimes employed is to use the building frame as a retaining element, comprising a Rigidly Framed Earth Retaining Structure (RFERS). The relationship between temperature and earth pressure acting on RFERS, is explored in this monograph through a 4.5 year mo...
