Definition An alternate transport method called in-pit crushing and conveying (IPCC) has a larger initial cost but offers significant operating cost savings. The best technology for big open pit mines with high production is IPCC. a continuous processing system that breaks down rock of mine (ROM) into a size that can be conveyed, using a […]

Introduction Rock Quality Designation (RQD) is a measure of quality of rock core taken from a borehole. RQD signifies the degree of jointing or fracture in a rock mass measured in percentage. It is commonly used in rock mass classification which is fundamental in tunnelling, dam construction, mine and slope design. The RQD is given […]

Definition and characteristics In the periodic table, lithium (Li) is the lightest solid element and belongs to the alkali metal group, Group 1 (Ia). Industrial processes are used to generate the white, glossy, and soft metal as well as a number of its alloys and compounds. Table 1: Lithium properties Properties Atomic number 3 Atomic […]

Introduction Technological progress is an important criterion for global economic development. Innovative technologies used by companies often determine their profitability and efficiency but are also an important element of an innovative and attractive workplace. Today, the most advanced technologies are based on the automation and robotisation of processes using drones, inspection robots, exoskeletons or virtual […]

Introduction: The extraction of minerals and other resources from the Earth, known as mining, plays a vital role in modern society. However, this industry often comes with significant environmental, social, and economic consequences. To address these challenges and ensure a more sustainable and equitable future, the “Framework for Responsible Mining” has been developed. This framework, […]

A great paper written by Victor Patson Mutambo, Dilmurod Maxmudov, Yorqin Nurboboev, Asliddin Mahmadoliev and Feruz Pardaev. Proper geological and economic assessment of ore dilution and loss is important both in the feasibility study of the mining design process and during mining operations. Production capacity and profitability of the mine directly depend on the indicators […]

At Nextdet, innovation is our fundamental pillar at each stage of the blasting process. As a leading manufacturer of electronic detonators, trigger consoles and specialized software for blast design and fragmentation analysis, we have developed Quamtum, a revolutionary tool that transforms the way mining operations are optimized. Quamtum offers detailed and accurate analysis of blast […]

The process of looking for signs of any mineralisation housed in the nearby rocks is known as mineral exploration. The fundamental idea is to create a geological picture by taking bits and pieces of geological data from several locations and projecting them over a broader area. Exploration proceeds in steps of increasing complexity. Cheaper, less […]

Introduction Drilling is a common activity carried out by mining and petroleum companies. The aim of a drilling campaign varies depending on the result type. Many tools are used during the process including dill rods, casings and water swivels. In this article, we are going to describe each tool and will also share their benefits. […]
