Seven undeveloped sediment-hosted stratiform Cu-Ag deposits constitute a future resource base of copper and silver ores in the Fore-Sudetic Monocline SW Poland. Among these, four have only recently been discovered documented: Nowa Sól, Sulmierzyce North, Mozów (forming part Northern Copper Belt) Żary. The three remaining – Bytom Odrzański, Głogów Retków surround currently mined New District to ...

A review of gold and bearing base metals deposits in Chile, indicate the existence at least six different type ore deposits, most largely formed during Cenozoic with predominance Miocene. Mesozoic are common but less relevant regarding their size content. These hydrothermal genetically associated subduction related Andean arc magmatism. Due to its relationship episodic magmatism migrating eastw...

The process of developing an iron ore mine from exploration data through to informed mining decisions provides an example of a Complex Adaptive System. The detailed composition of an ore body (expressed as a “block model” of regularly spaced rectangular blocks) has to be estimated from initially sparse exploration data, based upon a limited number of drill holes. As planning proceeds, the data ...

Introduction: Demand for Australian mined iron ore has increased employment within this sector thus exposing increased numbers of workers to the harsh Australian climate. This study examined the influence of hot (>30C WBGT) environmental temperatures, consistent with working in North Western Australia, on iron ore mining staff. Methods: Core temperature, hydration status, perceived exertion, mo...

due to the abundance of the non-coking coal and limitations as well as the high costs of the natural gas, the presentstudy examined the direct reduction of hematite (iron oxide) ore in the temperature range of 800-1000 °c by thenon-coking coal volatiles. approximately, 74.9% of the total amounts of volatiles and gases exit the coal up to800°c. the onset temperature to exit volatiles from the no...

INTRODUCTION Demand for Australian mined iron ore has increased employment within this sector, thus exposing increased numbers of workers to the harsh Australian climate. This study examined the influence of hot (>30°C wet bulb globe temperature) environmental temperatures, consistent with working in North Western Australia, on iron ore mining staff. METHODS Core temperature, hydration status...

in this research, the effects of oxygen injection during the induration process were studied in order to improve the quality specifications and increase the rate of production of the iron oxide pellets. several experiments were carried out in palletizing pilot plant in different conditions of oxygen injection. the results suggested that if only the extra oxygen was injected into the furnace in ...

BACKGROUND The least costly management strategy for patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy is unclear. METHODS A decision model incorporating cost ratios, test accuracy, complication, and failure rates was used to determine the costs of 4 peri-laparoscopic cholecystectomy strategies: endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), intraoperative cholangiography (IOCG), endosc...
