A saturated, metal-free solution of alum can be used as a fiocculant to speed up the sampling procedure during a geochemical survey of stream silts.

Current NSW Government policy requires searching for more than just minerals during an exploration program - add endangered fauna and archaeological relics for a start.

At CPA we believe that ore bodies discovered in future will be bigger and higher grade than the ones currently known and set out targets accordingly. Discoveries over the last three decades substantiated this approach.

This paper looks at the development in management education for engineers at the undergraduate level with particular reference to mining engineers. The management core content of the engineering degree course at Ballarat C.A.E. is described is some Detail.

There are no efficient methods and instruments available in China at present for diagnosing the leakage problem for a hydraulic support system in underground coal mines. A new method has been developed to solve the problem. It is proposed that

Installation of spirals as roughers and scavengers in the gravity and regrind recovery circuits has allowed rejection of large weight fractions to tailings, thus contributing to increased mill capacity.

This paper sets out to discuss some of the more common forms of geological data abuse in project development. The paper illustrates various types of abuse and the reasons behind that misuse of data. This paper is only a brief introduction to a very large subject.

Sustainable development places a heavy burden upon everyone involved in the public policy debate, about how to balance economic growth and environmental protection. We must treat that responsibility very seriously indeed. The mining industry especially cannot dodge the responsibility, even if it wished to.

In 1971 the first Grangcold Pelletizing Plant came into operation at Grangesberg, Sweden where from a rich magnetite low- phosphoric concentrate and a cement binder (Portland cement clinker and granulated blast furnace slag) self-fluxing blast furnace pellets are produced.

It is extraordinary that while Australia depends heavily on mineral wealth for its economic well-being, most Australians have no appreciation of the traditions and principles which drive and govern the mineral industry. Their understanding has been largely provided by those who campaign against the industry in one way or another and is therefore quite unrepresentative.

The law relating to the Treaty of Waitangi is developing rapidly at present. A number of separate, but related, developments can be identified.

Many problems occur in recruiting staff to remote mining operations, relating to both domestic and works environments. These are stated, together with steps which have been taken to overcome them. Geographical and climatic conditions applying to the Agnew mining operation are described. Company policies have been established to define criteria for selection of staff, and to define methods by which the criteria are applied.

This paper mainly studies the creation and optimisation of a doublesymbol random engineering network, by means of developing a set of engineering network project dynamic decisions and an optimisation sustaining system, which can realise engineering network dynamic workout and optimisation. It can provide a good decision for engineers and managers to supervise and manage the construction development and to ensure completion of the construction on time.

Distal rhyolitic tephras from the Taupo Volcanic Zone are widespread in the Auckland urban region. Some are primary air fall or flow deposits but most are reworked. Their presence indicates potential hazard for the Auckland urban region from future eruptions of central North Island volcanoes and associated secondary effects. Geotechnical problems occur as a result of weathering of the tephras yielding sensitive materials.

Comb-layered textures preserve the cyclic accumulation and release of volatiles inside magmas that are temporally associated with large Cu-Au-Mo-rich porphyry ore deposits. Fluid inclusions in these textures sample pristine magmatic fluid. Microanalysis of this fluid helps constrain the physical models that operate at melt-fluid interface and in the broader magma system responsible for ore deposit formation. An EXTENDED ABSTRACT is available for download. A full-length paper was not prepared for this presentation.

This paper shows how small calculators can be used for ball mill simulations. Two calculations are examined, the first to calculate the mill parameters and the second to predict the mill product. In the case of small programmable calculators the programs for two common models are given.
