Abstract The study presents the possibility of using geostatistical methods for monitoring groundwater quality. Poland is one largest copper producers in world. However, extraction and production requires constant care natural environment. Reservoir Żelazny Most which situated South – Western was designed to store flotation tailings out nearby mines. It biggest industrial dumps reservoir stores...

The iron content of the ore used is crucial for the productivity and coke consumption rate in blast furnace pig iron production. Therefore, most iron ore deposits are processed in beneficiation plants to increase the iron content and remove impurities. In several comminution stages, the particle size of the ore is reduced to ensure that the iron oxides are physically liberated from the gangue. ...

A study on the quantitative leaching of iron ore in hydrochloric acid solution has been undertaken. The elemental composition of the iron ore was also carried out using ICP-MS technique. The major elements in the iron ore include: Fe(66.7%); Al (0.2%); Si (5.2%); Ti (0.02%) and O (28.0%). Some traces of V, Ni, Zn, Ce, Cr, La, Y and Zr were also found. The effects of contact time, acid concentra...

The main purpose of geometallurgy is to develop a model to predict the variability in the mineral processing performance within the ore body. Geometallurgical tests used for developing such a model need to be fast, practical and inexpensive and include as an input data relevant and measureable geological parameters like elemental grades, mineral grades and grain size. Important in each geometal...

Iron ores are used in blast furnace for the production of pig iron; AGBAJA Iron ore has an estimated reserve of over I billion metric tonnes. Unfortunately, this large reserve cannot be utilized for the production of pig iron due to its high sulphur contents. This work studied the reduction of sulphur content of AGBAJA iron ore. Acid leaching methods were used to reduce sulphur contents of the ...

If JR is a ring, and G is a group of automorphisms of R, then R denotes the subring of R consisting of elements of R left fixed by every element of G, and is called the Galois subring corresponding to G. In his paper, Groups acting on hereditary rings, G. M. Bergman has asked if every Galois subring of a right Ore domain corresponding to a finite group is itself right Ore. In this note we show ...

An orthogonal Ore algebra is an abstraction of common properties of linear partial differential, shift and q-shift operators. Using orthogonal Ore algebras, we present an algorithm for finding hyperexponential solutions of a system of linear differential, shift and q-shift operators, or any mixture thereof, whose solution space is finite-dimensional. The algorithm is applicable to factoring mod...

The relations between evaluation of Ore polynomials and pseudo-linear transformations are studied. The behavior of these transformations under homomorphisms of Ore extensions, in particular with respect to algebraicity, is analyzed leading to characterization of left and right primitivity of an Ore extension. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for algebraic pseudo-linear transformati...

The Gironde fluvial estuarine system is impacted by historic metal pollution (e.g. Cd, Zn, Hg) and oysters (Crassostrea gigas) from the estuary mouth have shown extremely high Cd concentrations for decades. Based on recent work (Chiffoleau et al., 2005) revealing anomalously high Ag concentrations (up to 65 mg kg(-1); dry weight) in Gironde oysters, we compared long-term (~1955-2001) records of...

The formation of intrusion-related metal ore deposits commences with a combination sequential and melt interactions in the magma reservoir: (i) diffusion within melt; (ii) motion; (iii) partitioning between silicate melts magmatic immiscible phase (MIP, including and/or vapor phases, crystalized solids; (iv) advection (v) chemical MIP mush; (vi) finally deposition. Occasionally, these processes...
