This paper is concerned with the approach followed in Western Australian for dealing with the environmental hazards of ionising radiation associated with the mining and processing of titaniferous minerals contained in mineral sands deposits. There is a growing public awareness of the risks posed by one of these minerals, monazite, which emits low levels of radiation as it contains thorium and u...

the aim of this research is the investigation the relationship between the capital structure and institutional ownership mid to the other effective factors on this relation in tehran stock exchange. the others factors include the percentage of stock dividend, profitability, business risk, assets structure, liquidity, growth, and company size. the statistical population of the research is 117 li...

The application of chemistry to the technological requirements of the mineral industry is attended by problems of communication, isolation and application. Examples of research related to mineral exploration, underground fires, and the treatment of refractory ores suggest that the effective mineral chemist must learn the language of geology, metallurgy and engineering; that he must extend his s...

What do we know about ageing at work? Evidence-based fitness for duty and health in fire fighters. The current enthusiasm for fracking takes me back to the oil crisis of the late 1970s. I had been asked to see a post-thoracotomy patient and, when he recovered, found that his lesion had been pneumoconiotic. When I enquired which mine he worked in, he told me that it had been a shale mine and sin...

This paper with the title Waste Management in Mining Industry mainly deals with the large amount of waste generated by the mining industry in the process of extraction of minerals which is a great threat to the environment leading to air pollution soil pollution and many other hazardous effects to the environment as well as human lives . This paper broadly discusses about the different type of ...

The notion of “value” has always been a subjective and contentious issue. Indeed, Value is in the eye of the beholder. There are varied methods and practices for valuing property, as there are industries in which they are applied. For example, there are “replacement value”, “insurance value, “salvage value”, “appraised value”, “book value” and “fair market value”, to name a few, although in the...

Recent advances in information and artificial intelligence technologies, more specifically Fuzzy Logic Inference Systems (FIS), have provided a new approach solving many problems related to mineral industry. The aim of the current study is examine application FIS resources extractive industry by performing recent literature review (2010-2020) studies published engineering earth science oriented...
