Lithium found in Nagaur, 80% of the country's requirement will be fulfilled
The Geological Survey of India (GSI) has found another huge reserve of the crucial mineral, Lithium, in Degana in Rajasthan's Nagaur district. This reserve is much bigger in quantity than the one found in the Union Territory of Jammu and can meet 80% of country's demand.
Lithium is primarily used in the production of rechargeable batteries, particularly those used in electric vehicles, portable electronic devices and power tools. Lithium-ion batteries have a high energy density, making them a popular choice for use in devices where weight and size are important factors. Currently, India is import dependent for several minerals like lithium, nickel and cobalt.
There is an atmosphere of happiness in the country's electronic vehicle (EV), mobile phone and electric appliance industry due to the discovery of new reserves of lithium in Rajasthan. Because with the production of lithium in the country, the lithium required for batteries of electric buses, cars, scooters, bikes, mopeds and e-rickshaws will be available locally.
Apart from this, it will also be used in mobiles, e-pads, e-pods, inverters, torches, radios, battery bulbs, electric lanterns, medical devices and lithium-ion battery-powered devices, due to which Has been there is a possibility of a significant drop in their prices.
Mr. Tushar Choudhary, Founder & CEO, Motovolt Mobility said The discovery of significant lithium reserves in Rajasthan is a game-changer for India's electric vehicle plans. The country's dependence on imports for minerals like lithium, nickel, and cobalt has been a major obstacle to establishing a strong domestic EV industry. With the potential to meet 80% of the country's lithium demand, the localization of battery production will reduce India's dependence on imports and reduce the cost of batteries, making EVs more affordable for consumers. This could lead to a reduction in battery prices in the future, driving the growth of the EV market in India and helping to mitigate the effects of climate change. The discovery is a crucial step towards accelerating India's transition to a greener future.
The British discovered tungsten in 1914 on Revant hill in Degana, where the lithium reserves have been found. Tungsten, a good conductor of electricity, was produced in the region and used to make war material for the British Army during the First World War. It was also used in making surgical instruments even after Independence in the health and energy sector.
About 74% of the world's lithium production is used in batteries. Apart from this, lithium is also used in ceramic, glass, lubricating grease and polymer production. At present, India is completely dependent on foreign supplies for this mineral at an expensive rate. Lithium is imported from China. It is used in the battery industry. But due to availability of reserves and production of this mineral in the country itself, lithium will be available at domestic level only.
The Government of India is working on a scheme to increase share of EVs in total motor vehicles on road to at least 30 per cent by the end of year 2030. When mining starts from Lithium reserves in the country, the abundant cheap lithium will give a boost to the electric vehicle industry in India. Because the battery cost will become very affordable. In an electric vehicle, the cost of the battery is the highest after the body and motor.
So far, 5.9 million tonnes of Lithium reserves have been discovered in India. The USGS report says that India has come far above China in lithium exploration. The world's largest lithium reserves of 21 million tonnes have been discovered in Bolivia. 9.2 million tons of lithium reserves have been discovered in Chile, 5.9 million tons in India, 5.7 million tons in Australia, 2.2 million tons in Argentina, 1.5 million tons in China and 9 million tons in America.

GEORGETOWN, Guyana, May 14, CMC – The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is assisting Guyana in building capacity in environmental management of the gold mining sector.
The WWF has provided a GUY$12 million (One Guyana Dollar = US$0.01 cents) cheque to the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment as part of a one- year project aimed at training miners and other stakeholders upgrade the codes of practice and assist in the distribution of mercury.
The project is being executed by the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission (GGMC) and Environment Minister Robert Persaud said the government welcomes the initiative, which is part of its quest for better environmental management.
Persaud said that issues such as environmental management of the mining sector, particularly the use of mercury and human resource skills development, and updating of the codes of practices and guidelines are critical.
He said collaboration with organisations such as the WWF, is certainly helpful, and will assist the ministry to improve and enhance what is already being done in the mining sector, thus, contributing to national development and growth.
The ministry has been engaging the relevant stakeholders and agencies including the Guyana Gold and Diamond Miners’ Association (GDDMA) and GGMC to review, update and improve the mining sector.
“We don’t want a situation, where it is when we talk about mining it conjures images of destruction and bad practices, rather learning from our experiences in Guyana, as well as elsewhere and partnering with reputable bodies,” Persaud said.
“We have started a number of initiatives that realise our objectives in the mining sector… we realise that human resources development is key and we have been working on developing the Guyana Mining School.”
Persaud said the authorities are working on a 10-year reduction strategy on the use of mercury in the mining sector.
“We don’t believe that we can afford to have an immediate and total ban, it is important when we look particularly at alluvial mining, but we believe and we have seen that we can use it in a very safe and environmentally friendly way,” he said.
Government has been engaging international agencies in order to develop a programme allowing for the gradual reduction of mercury.
WWF Country Manager, Patrick Williams said that the organisation is also engaging a number of stakeholders globally to examine the attempt to ban mercury globally.

Full Metal Minerals to Acquire Puhipuhi Gold Project (20 April 2018)
Evolution Mining Offloads it’s New Zealand Puhipuhi Exploration Project. Puhipuhi is an Exploration Stage epithermal gold project on the North Island of New Zealand.
Full Metal Minerals will pay C$50,000 upfront for the project and up to $5.5 million in milestone payments, which can be made in shares. Evolution acquired Puhipuhi from De Grey Mining in 2015 for A$370,000. Evolution spent over NZ$5 million on exploration including extensive soil geochemical surveys, 24 line kilometres of geophysics surveys and 3800m of diamond drilling. FMM has raised C$1.25 million in connection with the transaction. Evolution has been focusing all of its recent exploration efforts on its Australian projects….
And our response to this news? On the ball as usual the Action Coordination Group responds swiftly, ‘ Local Resisters Warn the New Company Off…’ Sunday, 22 April 2018, 6:52 pm
Press Release: Action Coordination Group –
The Action Coordination Group is a working coalition of Ngāti Hau Kuia Kaumatua, the Ngāti Hau Anti-Mining Group, the Ngāti Hau Resource Management Unit, and MineWatch Northland.
Here’s a Great Waatea News Audio Interview with Vaughan Potter from Ngati Hau Anti Mining Group.. dated 23 April 2018 ‘Puhipuhi licence flicked on!’
Northland hapu Ngati Hau has new adversaries in its battle to prevent gold mining in its rohe. Canadian miner Full Metal Minerals Ltd has announced it has acquired two exploration permits from Australian company Evolution Mining, subject to approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange.
The permits cover Puhipuhi and much of the Russell Forest. Ngati Hau has opposed mining at Puhipuhi since the 1980s because of its concerns over potential discharges of mercury and other contaminants into waterways, Vaughan Potter from Ngati Hau Anti Mining Group says Evolution struggled at Puhipuhi because of local opposition, and new entrant can expect the same.
Tim Howard from Mine Watch Northland says the company announced last June it was withdrawing from Puhipuhi it said it was because tests showing insufficient reason to continue.
The sale of the licenses indicates the real reason it left was because of strong resistance they received from tangata whenua and community-based organisations.

Drilling fluids, also called drilling mud , are added to the well to facilitate the process of drilling by controlling pressure, stabilizing the stone under pressure, creating buoyancy, cooling and lubrication.
In the early third century BC, the Chinese used water as a drilling fluid to facilitate infiltration into the earth. But the term drilling mud was coined when Spindletop has been used in the United States as drilling lubricant.
As the technology of manufacturing and chemical composition of drilling fluids has become much more complex, its functionality and concept remain unchanged. Drilling fluids are essential for drilling success, maximizing efficiency and minimizing the amount of time needed to reach the goal.
Purpose of drilling fluids
During drilling with any kind of borer, drill chips are created. These chips are crumbs created by digging the drilling site. Of course, the chips don’t matter until the drill stops, but as soon as the drill stops, the chips are thrown back into the created hole and prevent the drill from moving smoothly. Drilling fluids are used as a tool to prevent this from happening. These fluids have a certain consistency – and when the drill stops, their viscosity causes them to harden. The same feature helps the chips to get out of the borer.
Drilling mud also help to control the pressure in the well by compensating the pressure of hydrocarbons and rock formations. In fact, to increase its density and hence its pressure on the well walls, it is added to the drilling fluid of the weighting agents, which as its fluid weight increases, changes its ability to control the well pressure.
Another important function of drilling fluids is rock stabilization. These fluids use special additives to ensure that the drilling fluid is not absorbed by the rock formation in the well and that the pores of the rock formation are not blocked.
The deeper the well, the more drilling pipes are required. With this amount of pipe, the drill becomes heavy, and therefore, the drilling mud increases buoyancy and reduces the pressure. In addition, the drilling fluid helps to reduce friction and heat. This lubrication and cooling help to extend the life of the borer.
what are Drilling fluids ?
Drilling fluids are water, oil, or synthetic-based; each combination offers different solutions in the well. If the rock is made of salt or clay, appropriate action must be taken to make drilling fluids effective. In fact, a drilling fluid engineer performs drilling monitoring operations and adds the necessary drilling fluid additives throughout the process to speed up digging or to minimize friction.
A drilling fluid engineer should consider environmental impacts when prescribing the type of drilling fluid in addition to the chemical composition and properties of the well. Oil-based drilling fluids may work better with a saltwater rock. Water-based drilling fluids are mostly used in offshore drilling environments.
Disposal of drilling fluids after use can also be a challenge. Recent technological advances have created methods for the recovery of drilling fluids, which in addition result in saving the cost of drilling fluids, reducing the environmental damage of drilling fluids and drilling chips in the environment.

Once a REE mineral concentrate has been produced, the contained REEs need to be extracted and made available for separation and purification. This is done using a process termed “cracking” or “mineral decomposition”. There are several ways of doing this, listed below:
1. Sulfuric acid is utilized most often because it is low cost and effective. Here, the mineral concentrate is mixed with sulfuric acid to make a slurry or paste, and passed through a rotary furnace at elevated temperatures. Upon exiting the furnace, the REE minerals are decomposed resulting in a complex mixture of REE sulfates and concentrate impurities. There are also instances of this process being performed in batch. Noteworthy issues in this process are:
- Incomplete REE mineral decomposition due to insufficient furnace residence time
- Some REE mineral grains in the concentrate do not react completely due to size and liberation issues
- Subsequent limited REE solubility due to excess sulfate in the process solutions
- Sulfuric acid decomposition producing SOx and F containing gasses
2. Hydrochloric acid can be used under certain conditions, but it is less effective at mineral decomposition than sulfuric acid. It can be used under high temperatures and pressures in batch mode, but often with limited success. One unique and historic use is for processing roasted bastnäsite, which when roasted transforms into a new fluorite structure mineral containing insoluble cerium. The other contained lanthanides are readily dissolved in HCl, isolated in the usual manner, and further processed. The cerium-containing insoluble residue cannot currently be sold due to the high levels of impurities, but can be further processed with other techniques.
3. Caustic cracking is very efficient at cracking most REE minerals. It is usually performed in batch mode at moderately elevated temperatures. Any contained silica in the mineral concentrate is also solubilized, leading to the usual problems of filtering and phase separations due to silica. The cracked residue contains the REE as hydroxides, which are readily soluble in HCl. Further processing is required to remove the contained impurities.
Note, close chemical analysis during the cracking process is necessary, as some of the REE can be observed to re-precipitate after cracking conditions are relaxed. Precipitates containing REE fluorides and phosphates can be observed as well as a compound called a double sulfate, a mixture of sodium and REE sulfate.


Although it is noble to be the ‘barbwire man’, history only remembers the winners. In the lithium space you want to understand the complex chemistry and process engineering to invest in the winners, not the pioneers - select the companies who are second in the queue...
It is clear the energy transition will be metal intensive, and the supply-demand deficit projections vary widely. However, the common denominator will be a supply shortage unless the mining industry adapts and changes.
Exhibit 1 – Factors of global metal production to meet EV demand
- In the International Energy Agency’s EV30@30-scenario*, Europe is projected to need between 15% and 70% of the current global production of critical metals in 2030
- In its scenario in which all new cars sold in Europe in 2030 are electric, Europe will need as much as 1.5 times
- In the global EV30@30 scenario, up to three times the current annual global production will be needed to produce sufficient electric cars in 2030
*EV30=30% market penetration

Global lithium production focuses on concentration from a primary source (evaporation in brines or spodumene concentration) and then refining and separation from gangue (brine refining or spodumene conversion). In both stages energy and reagents are consumed to concentrate and refine, and waste is generated – there is an ESG trade off, effectively between water consumption and hydrological disruption or an energy carbon footprint.
Lithium brines are a very important part of the lithium supply equation, with estimates suggesting brines accounting for ~45% of global LCE supply in 2021, rising to 60% by 2030. Lithium brine deposits are typically characterised by large resource bases/ultra-long mine lives, production costs at the bottom of the global cost curve (i.e., higher margin), and superior sustainability credentials (i.e., significantly lower CO2 intensity based on solar evaporation concentration) compared to converted hard rock sources. However, the scarcity of water in the Latin American lithium triangle is becoming an environmental issue and the brine extraction and associated water loss is changing the hydrology and chemistry of the connected water basins under the salars.
Exhibit 2 – Sources of Lithium

In the case of lithium brine operations, ‘conventional’ solar evaporation-based processing is premised on the removal (precipitation) of impurities from brines through the application of reagents which combined with solar evaporation serves to concentrate lithium grades ahead of carbonation and purification. However, there are limitations to expansion of conventional resources, including increasing demand for energy, limitations on land use, waste disposal, water accessibility and use, and poor economics in developing lower-grade deposits. You need to invest in new extractive technologies….
Exhibit 3: The current environmnetal footprint of the lithium industry
Key to investing in the sector is to identify orebodies and associated companies that can support an integrated ‘mine-to-market’ business model. This enables the supply chain to shorten and become less fragmented.
The orebody has to be high grade1 and of scale with low contaminants2
The battery producer manages the chemical conversion
Take or pay contracts established with prices linked to hydroxide pricing
Select battery manufacturers with high credit ratings and project finance facilities

Direct Lithium Extraction – maybe a ‘solution’ to an environmental problem
DLE describes a group of technologies that removes lithium from a brine to produce a concentrated lithium solution. The two main processes are:
1. Adsorption – a physical electrostatic process where LiCl molecule in brine is absorbed onto sorbent and removed with a strip solution. Used for geothermal lower concentration brines and there is a trade-off between selectivity and brine concentrations. The concentration of impurities Mg; Na and Ca must be understood.
2. Ionic exchange – a chemical process where the Li+ in in the brine is absorbed into solid ion exchange material and swapped for other positive ions (acid).
DLE-based processes are typically suited to lithium brine deposits with lower lithium concentrations and/or higher impurity levels. DLE-based methods preferentially extract lithium with impurities remaining in the ‘spent’ brine and reinjected into the aquifer.
The advantages of DLE include – easy to understand!
• improved economics of exploiting lower grade/higher impurity lithium resources
• lower reagent consumption
• reduced fresh-water consumption
• significantly shorter production lead times (vs typical 12–18-month residence times in evaporation ponds)
• smaller physical footprint (i.e., no evaporation ponds, waste disposal).
Risks to DLE include – harder to appreciate!
• Longer development timelines (in its early stages) due to higher level of test work required given variability of brine chemistries.
• Companies must go from bench scale test work to pilot scale to commercial scale and produce consistent produce in sufficient quantity over a prolonged period.
• Typical scale up factors should be around 10,000x any less and the project could experience problems.
• Higher energy consumption (higher operating costs), a result of high volumes of brine extracted and reinjected
• Technical risks associated with the reinjection of brine, as the chemistry of the brine has changed which could cause preferential precipitation thus reducing the porosity of the aquifer.
• Understanding the lithium brine cut-off grades; DLE – 100ppb; Pond evaporation 300ppb.
The ASMF has identified the companies in the queue.
At the time of writing the ASMF has 42.9% portfolio weighting the in battery metals through its investments in specialty metal and base metal developers and producers. Our direct weighting in lithium stocks is 14.1%.

What are pellets?
Pellets are the ground iron ore fibrnes converted to spherical shape balls having good physical properties for both bulk, mechanical transportation over long distances and also have excellent metallurgical properties similar or even better than lump ore. The pellets become a vital raw material for all types of Iron Making Units. They are made with technology that uses the powder that is generated during the ore extraction process, once considered waste.
What are they used for?
Affordable, high-quality raw materials for iron making are steadily decreasing on a global scale. This means that fine and ultra-fine iron ores will command an ever-larger share of iron ore sales in the future. For this reason, a growing number of iron and steel producers are looking into the possibility of increasing the portion of pellets in their production operations. The use of pellets, however, leads to a number of issues. Fluctuating prices on the world market can seriously affect cost-efficient ironmaking.
The pellets are used as raw material for Iron making in the plants as an alternate material for Sinter and/or Lump Ore.
The pellets are preferred over sinter and lump ore as their shape, size, strength and excellent designed metallurgical properties in Blast furnaces as burden. The use of pellets resulted in increasing the productivity of the iron making units without any capital investment. The designer pellets with known chemistry facilitate reduction in coke rate and the slag chemistry over the conventional burden.
Filter Cake (Iron-ore fitness concentrate) is received from the post beneficiation process. Other raw materials like Lime Stone, Dolomite, Bentonite, Coke & Coal is mixed with filter cakes in proportion as an additive and binder. Then the mixture passes through Pelletizing Discs to make green balls and then for screening are sent to the Drying -> Preheating -> Roasting process in a coal fired rotary Kiln to make the pellets. The finished pellets are then sent for cooling purpose and stored. The undersized and oversized balls are sent to the crusher for the further pelletizing process.


Mud is the general term of the circulating flushing media used in the holes during the drilling operation. As the “blood” of drilling engineering, mud plays a key role in ensuring safe, high-quality and fast drilling.
Disadvantages of traditional mud
For the preparation of traditional mud, a large amount of raw materials need to be transported to the site and be prepared in real time according to the conditions of the formations. The performance and stability of the mud prepared on site depend on the professional level and working experience of the preparers. Therefore, the traditional mud preparation methods result in the high procurement, transportation and use cost of mud materials, with poor reliability and stability.
What is DMD’s formulated mud?
DMD’s formulated mud is a high-concentration formulated product packed quantitatively and developed by DMD’s R&D team by extensively collecting domestic and international drilling engineering mud preparation and application big data and by using scientific detection methods and modern testing methods according to different formation characteristics. With excellent lubrication, resistance reduction and rheological behavior, and the advantages in preventing collapsing and protecting walls, reducing shrinkage, reducing casing consumption and rapid passing-through in complex formations, the mud is widely used in mineral exploration, engineering exploration and engineering construction, especially suitable for the thin-wall wire-line coring process with higher requirements for mud.DMD’s formulated mud is designed to meet the requirements of drilling engineering for environment-friendly exploration, energy saving and emission reduction. From raw materials procurement, production, processing and product packaging to the combined application with recycling and curing equipment, it minimizes mud discharge to prevent packaged materials from being left over. Therefore, it is a real environment-friendly product.
DMD’s formulated mud features scientific formula, high concentration, ready-to-use, precise materials saving and environment-friendliness etc. High-quality mud can be prepared by non- professional technicians.
The superiority and convenience of DMD’s formulated mud have created a new era of drilling mud and driven the transformation and upgrade of the exploration industry. This will lead the general trend of drilling mud application and industry development in the future.

Xstrata Coal NSW (XCN) is establishing a new thermal coal mine in the upper Hunter Valley. The project is referred to as the Mangoola Coal Project and includes not only the coal handing and preparation plant but also a rail spur and loop, buildings, services and infrastructure necessary to place the facility into operation.
The project is being constructed on a greenfield site approximately 12 miles (20 kilometers) west of Muswellbrook and 6 miles (10 kilometers) from Denman.
The scope of the project is to establish a maximum 10.5 million tons per annum open-cut mine averaged over a 20-year operating life. A truck and shovel operation is proposed and is to be operated by Xstrata Mangoola.
A coal handling and preparation plant is to be built to generate thermal coal for both export and local markets. A rail loop and loading station will be built and the export coal transported along the Muswellbrook–Ulan line to Newcastle.
Delivery of the Mangoola Project consists of eight separate work zones to be delivered and project managed under several alliance agreements; Parsons Brinckerhoff is a member of five of these alliances.


Mine Safety Secretary: Department Will Be Challenged to Keep Miners Safe
A 30 percent budget cut directed by the General Assembly is forcing the state Office of Mine Safety and Licensing (OMSL) to reorganize in preparation for balancing the agency’s budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1, Energy and Environment Secretary Len Peters announced Friday.
Legislators reduced the OMSL budget by $4.3 million each year of the two-year budget enacted during the 2014 General Assembly. Lawmakers also reduced the number of mandatory annual mine safety inspections, from six to four.
Gov. Steve Beshear said the restructuring, which will be implemented by an executive order effective June 1, 2014, was forced upon the Cabinet when his proposal to fully fund mine safety and inspection functions was significantly reduced by the General Assembly in the two-year state budget. He predicted the budget cut would have both tangible and symbolic impact.
Despite the declines in coal mining, employment and coal sales, there continue to be many mine sites that need inspecting, monitoring and oversight, Beshear said.
“For years Kentucky made mine safety a high priority and dedicated resources to assure a higher safety standard than the federal government requires,” Beshear said in a news release. “I am disappointed that the General Assembly decided to retreat from that standard and only meet the minimum requirements.”
Although he said he disagreed with the General Assembly’s decision to reduce funding, the Governor said he would work with the Cabinet to assure the highest level of safety possible with the funding available.
Under the reorganization, OMSL will become the Division of Mine Safety in the Department for Natural Resources (DNR).
“The stark reality is, we are left with a bare bones budget and the only recourse is to reorganize,” Secretary Peters said. “My concern going forward is for the safety of all Kentucky miners. The division will be challenged to make the inspections necessary to keep our miners safe. That continues to be our top priority.”
The Office of Mine Safety and Licensing has offices in Frankfort, Barbourville, Harlan, Hazard, Madisonville, Martin and Pikeville and employs approximately 140 staff.

Lithium - one of the most important raw materials in our digital and mobile age. Most of the mobile devices that are important to us today would be unthinkable without lithium: smartphones, tablets and laptops, cordless screwdrivers and other handy tools , electric cars and hybrid cars, e-bikes and electric scooters. A single lithium battery - for example a CATL battery - for an electric car requires 10 to 20 kg of lithium, for some battery models up to 50 kg. Between 2016 and 2019 alone, annual global lithium consumption has already doubled.
The demand for lithium is enormous, but it is difficult to obtain. Currently, about two thirds of the lithium produced in the world comes from mining, one third is extracted in so-called lithium brines. With lithium brines are huge salt lakes in which lithium occurs naturally.
Because lithium is extremely reactive, it does not occur in elemental form in either resource, but mostly as lithium carbonate in mining and mostly as lithium chloride in brines. Elemental lithium ignites at room temperature and reacts to form lithium oxide It is also highly corrosive to humans, as normal skin moisture is sufficient for it to react to form lithium hydroxide, generating intense heat. Attempting to extinguish a lithium fire with water or other common means will only generate more heat and intensify the damage. Lithium fires can only be extinguished with salt or inert gases.
These facts show that the production and trading of the coveted lithium comes with considerable hurdles for newcomers, but also for experienced industry experts - technically, organizationally and economically. Mining is an extremely capital-intensive undertaking - In addition, the lithium reserves in mining, like so many other raw material reserves, are slowly running out. It is estimated that around 17 million tons of lithium are still available in mines worldwide of work and private life, as well as the switch to electromobility that is just beginning, these will soon be exhausted.
The extraction of lithium from mining involves some uncertainties. The exploration phase will require diamond drill testing. The geographical characteristics of regions with rock deposits of lithium are extremely variable: some are densely populated or particularly vulnerable from a biodiversity point of view. This can be politically challenging and often make projects completely impossible. Taking samples from salt lakes, on the other hand, is much less invasive, faster and cheaper.
The development towards an economically usable stage is possible for Solen with significantly less time and capital expenditure and is politically and bureaucratically leaner.
Conventional lithium stocks have already risen sharply when Elon Musk recently dubbed lithium a „license to print money“ and „the new oil.“ The Tesla boss and pioneer of the energy transition emphasized that in geopolitically uncertain times lithium is essential to ensure energy independence. In private conversations, he had already warned the EU Commission that the EU and the USA would become increasingly dependent on China when it came to lithium. China also has significant lithium deposits in salt lakes - but not comparable to the salt lakes of South America, which contain an estimated 70% of the world's deposits.
Lithium is license to print money.

Mining is the extraction of materials from the earth. Frequently removed from what the mining industry call lodes, veins, seams, reefs or ore bodies and normally considered of value to the mining company. There are hundreds of mining companies all over the world, like Yamana Gold run by CEO Peter Marrone.
Types of Mining
There are several ways to extract such items off or from the earth. They are generally broken down into two types: surface and underground
Surface mining removes vegetation, dirt and layers of bedrock to reach the buried ore deposits or resource that the miner wants to recover. This can be done via open-pit mining, like for sand or gravel, or strip mining. There is also mountaintop removal mining that is usually associated with coal mining.
Underground mining requires the miners to dig tunnels or shafts into the earth in order to reach what they consider valuable and worthwhile to retrieve. Both waste product and material of value come out through those same tunnels and shafts. Underground mining can get further classified by the type of shaft, extraction method or other techniques used to reach the minerals. Hard and soft rock also require different techniques, and tunnels can run sloped, horizontal or vertical depending on the product being mined.
Other names for types of mining are drift mining, slope mining, shaft mining, shrinkage stope, long wall, room and pillar, retreat mining, hard rock mining, bore hole mining, drift and fill, long hole slope, sub level and block caving.
Examples of products include gold, diamonds, coal, oil, precious gems, even gravel and sand. Any type of removal of a non-renewal resource such as petroleum, natural gas and even water is also considered products of mining. Metals are also a frequently mined for item.
Environment and Waste Effects
Environmental issues can include sinkholes, erosion, and contamination of soil and water by chemicals released in the mining processes. There is destruction of forest land when removal of the trees is necessary for the mining efforts.
Mining companies in most countries are required to follow stringent environmental codes and rehabilitate the land after mine closure. There also rules that must be followed to minimize effects on human safety and health. While intentions are good, the rules are not always enforced well, especially in developing countries.
Recycling Saves the Planet and Minimizes the Need for Mining Replenishment
Mining, no matter how well controlled, has toxic effects on the environment and the human condition that are long lasting and in most cases permanent. Do your part to help reduce the carbon footprint by recycling. Metals are inherently recyclable so they can be used over and over again, which also saves energy. For example, 95% of the energy used to make aluminum from bauxite ore is saved by using recycled material. Unfortunately, tracked levels of recycling are low. More needs to be done at every level to utilize this environment and energy saving activity.
Mining serves a great purpose and fills a great need. People like Peter Marrone excel at running profitable companies while still mining safely and responsibly. Everyone doing their part will keep it that way.


Gold Focus: Items tagged with "climate change"
Gold has a special place in the Australian psyche. The gold rush of the early 1850s helped propel the country’s economy, stimulate its industries and grow its population. Australia is the world’s second largest gold producer and gold remains its third major commodity export. And over the last few years the Australian gold sector has flourished, with record mine production and record gold prices... But any sense of sectoral optimism is in danger of evaporating as the country struggles to cope with raging bushfires of unprecedented intensity and scale.
Gold is valuable and rare. Large amounts of rock need to be mined and processed to produce an ounce of gold and this uses significant amounts of energy.


Visualized: Mining Emissions and How They Can be Addressed
If the mining industry were a country, its emissions would be equivalent to the top 4 emitting countries combined (China, the United States, India, and Russia).
Yet, according to the World Bank, mineral resource development must be recognized as a “complement and not a competitor, to a greener more sustainable future”.
The Mining Industry by the Numbers
Mining operations and power consumption: 1 % of global emissions
Fugitive-methane emissions from coal mining: 3-6% of global emissions
Combustion of coal 28% of global emissions
Combined, the sector is responsible for 32-35% of global greenhouse gas emissions.
The mining sector is at the front end of addressing climate change issues with numerous options to reduce its global emissions impact through operational efficiency, electrification, and renewable energy use. Major efforts will be required by the coal industry to reduce fugitive methane emissions.
The decarbonization potential for mines is impacted by various factors including the mine type, the commodity, the power source, and grid emissions so several options are available for consideration.
For certain, the demands of a low carbon energy shift are dependent on a robust and sustainable mining and metals industry.
