For emerging countries, mining has been a vital factor in employment, economic development, infrastructure, and supply of essential raw materials for Nation’s Gross domestic product (GDP) growth. The Limestone mine industry is serving as viable route transformation India. exploration causes major damage to the environment at Yerraguntla industrial zone, YSR Kadapa district, Andhra Pradesh, main...

Because grains comprise the major portion of diets for finishing beef cattle, and grains contain little calcium, limestone is typically added to finishing diets at levels of .7 to more than 1% of the dry matter. Feedgrade limestone varies in quality and consistency, which could alter performance responses by finishing beef steers. Selection of superior sources of limestone and(or) treatment of ...

In recent, the placement of backfill in underground mines has emerged as a new paradigm in research as it not only improves safety but also allows disposal of byproducts including coal ash. In this regards, this paper addresses the backfilling challenges in limestone mine to prevent sinkhole and subsidence. Limestone mines, generally regarded as being safer than coal and metal mines, have been ...

Two experiments were conducted to compare a sample of calcium citrate-malate (CC-M) with a sample of commercial-grade limestone in starting broiler chick diets. In the first experiment, with 0.7 or 0.9% calcium from limestone or CC-M, no differences in bone development (dry fat-free tibia, tibia weight, tibia ash, or tibia calcium) were observed due to calcium source. However, chicks fed the di...

A 112-day trial was carried out to evaluate the effect of dietary calcium level and limestone particle size on the egg quality of 288 HyLine Brown semi-heavy layers, with 83 weeks of age at the beginning of the experiment. A completely randomized experimental design was applied in a 2x3 factorial arrangement, with two dietary calcium levels (3.5 and 4.0%) e three limestone particle size composi...

Limestone dust is generally regarded as being relatively harmless. In this paper I wish to record eight cases of pneumoconiosis in limestone workers, in all of which limestone played the sole or principal aetiological part. My attention was first drawn to the condition in November, 1950, when I saw the chest radiograph of a patient whose occupation was limestone crushing. The appearances were m...

Acidic mine drainage (AMD) containing elevated concentrations of dissolved iron and other metals can be neutralized to varying degrees by reactions with limestone in passive treatment systems. We evaluated the chemical and mineralogical characteristics and the effectiveness of calcitic and dolomitic limestone for the neutralization of net-acidic, oxic, iron-laden AMD from a flooded anthracite m...

Abstract There are historic subsurface dimension stones in the capital of Hungary (Budapest) that were excavated porous limestone. The stability these openings is important, since most them located urban areas, where existing buildings or new structures planned to be built. paper presents a detailed study considering geometry system and mechanical parameters cellar was obtained using terrestria...

Natural stone has been used since the dawn of civilization as a construction material for buildings that are historical and cultural monuments. The Zagreb Cathedral is an example such building data regarding extraction its reconstruction scientifically underestimated. Based on review previously published literature investigation current state sites where was quarried, this paper presents system...
