    Sammanfattning : Dagens gruvdrift omfattar huvudsakligen två metoder för malmbrytning: dagbrott och underjordsbrytning. Vid dagbrott öppnas gruvan ovan jord, medan underjordsbrytning involverar utvinning under mark och transport till marknivån med hjälp av ett gruvspel. Den struktur som bär upp detta gruvspel över schaktet kallas gruvlave. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Digging Deeper: Exploring Roads to Inclusive Development Through Mine Closure Policy and Practices in the Dominican Republic

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Bianca Terrero Vega; [2023]
    Nyckelord :mine closure; inclusive development; mineral governance; community engagement; energy transition metals; just transitions.; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Mining operations have significant environmental and social impacts, including ecosystem fragmentation, biodiversity loss, pollution, and social issues such as low wages and unsafe working conditions. Despite these negative effects, mining plays a crucial role in the transition to low-carbon technologies and the demand for energy transition minerals is expected to surge. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Processöversikt och effektivisering av gruvetablering enligt svensk lagstiftning

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)

    Författare :Amelie Björkman; [2023]
    Nyckelord :mining legislation; mining regulations; permit process; Viscaria; efficiency; bottlenecks.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Metals and minerals are prerequisites for a modern and climate-neutral society. Domestic mining facilities are also an essential part of the Swedish national economy. Sweden has a unique bedrock and is one of Europe's largest producers. However, the willingness to invest in the Swedish mining industry has dropped over the last decade. LÄS MER

  5. 5. In-Situ Gold Resource Estimation Using Satellite Remote Sensing and Machine Learning in Defunct Tailing Storage Facilities (South Africa)

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Shenelle Agard; [2023]
    Nyckelord :tailings storage facility; critical raw materials; machine learning; mine valorisation;

    Sammanfattning : The mining industry generates billions of tonnes of waste annually, which is often stored in tailings storage facilities (TSF). This waste is generated from the extraction of ore from surface or underground mines, as well as from metallurgical processing and low-grade stockpiles. LÄS MER
