Read MoreLeading Practice Sustainable Development in Mining is a handbook that provides guidance and best practices for the mining industry to achieve environmental, social and economic sustainability. The handbook covers topics such as community engagement, mine closure, water management, biodiversity conservation and climate change. The handbook is
Read More2021.12.10 Mining is one of the largest and most hazardous industries in the world. This research aims to review the current research in the field of occupational health and safety in mining sector to categorize health-related risk factors found by scholars and investigate how workers' exposures to these risk factors have been managed up to present.
Read MoreThe primary aim of every twenty-first century mining operation is to extract as much ore as possible in a safe and economical manner. Failure in mine excavation occurs when the shear stress acting on the rock is greater than the shear strength of the rock mass. The stability of rock slopes in open-pit mine and quarry operations is extremely important
Read More2023.1.31 In the last few years, the mining and metallurgy industry has made concerted efforts to improve waste management through a byproduct recovery strategy, mainly focusing on developing innovative technologies to provide sustainable solutions. This strategy has seen the metallurgy industry exploit more natural resources in waste
Read More2020.5.1 One of the elements of seismic risk assessment is also the analysis of seismic activity that occurred during mining operations in the neighbouring region. The tremor distribution map ( Fig. 11 ) shows that seismic activity, especially in respect of tremors with energy levels above 10 5 J, takes place mainly within the regions of impact
Read More2014.8.1 However, the coal mining industry has made tremendous improvements in reducing the fatality and injury rates (Kinilakodi and Grayson, 2011), the disasters are posing new challenges regarding the way managers assess and mitigate high-risk conditions. Coal mining has many hazards that make it unique in the field of industrial health and safety.

Read More2021.2.10 Risk transference is the most popular method of handling risk and results in the use of many third-party vendors for organizations (ISACA, 2016, p. 113). When opting to use third party vendors, an organization is choosing to transfer risk due to the inability or lack of feasibility for conducting the action on their own.
Read More2021.1.5 With the increasing depth of underground engineering, the risk of coal–rock dynamic disasters such as rockburst is becoming more and more serious and complex, which seriously threatens the safety of coal resource, mine production and the surface ecological environment. However, the existing risk indices and methods used for

Read MoreWhile traumatic fatality incidents in the mining sector have declined substantially over the past several decades, deaths from occupational illness have not. Miners working in a closed underground environment can be exposed to airborne hazards such as diesel emissions and silica that put them at higher risk of developing occupational illness.
