Layered mine waste co-mingling for mitigation of acid rock drainage
By J Hadijigeorgiou, R. W. Lawrence, R Pouling
The layered co-mingling method involves the disposal of waste rock with the addition, at predefined construction stages, of layers of dewatered mine tailings. The resulting waste structure displays bu

Extraction of rare earths and thorium from monazite by chlorination with carbon tetrachloride
By G. Adachi, K. Machida, T. Ozaki, K. Murase
The chlorination rate with CCl4 was unexpectedly slower than carbochlorination using chlorine under the same reaction conditions. Chlorination with CCl4 was topochemical and the amount of monazite rea

Mineralogical characterisation of apatites from Brazilian phosphate deposits with reference to flotation behaviour
By S. L. R. Lenharo, H. Kahn, H. Born
Different ore types result from the irregular spatial distribution of the associated alkaline/carbonatite rocks and the zoned alteration profile within which apatite may have undergone reprecipitation

Regional framework for gold deposits of the Odzi-Mutare-Manica greenstone belt, Zimbabwe-Mozambique
By H. Forster, F. H. Koenemann, U. Knittel
The greenstone belt developed along the Sandawana line, an anastomosing, transcrustal shear zone. The lode gold is concentrated in veins and along brittle-ductile shear zones and other faults. Gold co

Mechanical properties of three Australian iron ores
By M. V. Swain, N. Bristow, R. D. Dukino
During mining, crushing and handling the size of iron ore lumps decreases. Key factors in determining the amount and size of fines that are produced are the mechanical properties of the ore. In a cont

Fused-salt electrorefining of bismuth-lead alloys in a recessed-channel cell
By F. Tailoka
Bi was electrorefined from alloys containing 10-90 wt% Pb, together with Cu and Ag as minor impurities, in a basic cell and in a recessed-channel cell with 27.5:72.5 NaCl-PbCl electrolyte at 450-470 d

Long-team open-pit production scheduling through dynamic phase-bench sequencing
By Qing Wang
In this method the state of an open-pit mine is represented by the number of benches that are mined in each predesigned mining phase (or pushback). Consequently, a specific mining schedule can be repr
