Our Horne Smelter is a custom copper smelter, processing concentrate from the operations of Glencore and third parties. In operation since 1927, it is now the only copper smelter in Canada and plays an important role for the Canadian copper mining industry. Horne Smelter is one of the few plants in the world that also responsibly recycles endoflife electronics and other copper bearing materials.
Managing your mine accident, injury and illness reporting (Form 70001) has never been easier! Intelex''s MSHA Incident Reporting Software lets you easily record, track, trend and investigate all types of mining accidents, injuries, and illnesses.
Modular Mining | Driving value through the most complete lineup of mine management solutions for openpit underground mines worldwide. Modular Mining From initial system deployment to our toptier Mine Plan Compliance program,
mining is necessary to ensure the delivery of suitable ore to the processing plant, in order to keep the overall operating costs at a minimum. A complex control system is in place and is capable of a high degree of selectivity. The paper describes the grade control system in place at Skorpion Mine
A rebreather is a breathing apparatus that absorbs the carbon dioxide of a user''s exhaled breath to permit the rebreathing (recycling) of the substantially unused oxygen content, and unused inert content when present, of each breath. Oxygen is added to replenish the amount metabolised by the user. This differs from opencircuit breathing apparatus, where the exhaled gas is discharged directly
ventilation plan. The quantity of air passing through the last open crosscut shall be at least 9,000 cubic feet per minute unless a greater quantity is required in the approved ventilation plan. The air current at working faces shall under all conditions have a sufficient quantity to
Classified plant is required by the regulations to fully comply with specific Australian Standards. Furthermore, certain types of classified plant require registration with the State Mining Engineer before they can be used on a Western Australian mine site.
The plan must be certified and signed by the authorised mine surveyor. The authorised mine surveyor: may include appropriate and useful additional information on the mine plan; should ensure that any information about a danger to the mine, adjacent mines, or adjacent strata if worked, is recorded accurately on the plan.
MINE SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Outburst Manageme nt Plan The Plan makes allowance for alternate mining procedures to be used, under strictly controlled and considered circumstances, which maximise the protection provided to employees and the operation. Scope
· § section of the Final CCR Rule CCR contains detailed operational descriptions for the Centralia Mine, including coal mining, backfill and grading Minimum 6‐inch‐thick erosion layer of earthen material capable of sustaining plant growth. The final cover system for the LPLF will require a
Draft NSW Code of Practice: Mine shafts and winding systems For public comment Scope and application This code of practice provides guidance to assist mine operators in developing and implementing a principal mining hazard management plan (PMHMP) for mine shafts and winding systems, as required under the WHS laws.
Desalination plants built for mines may also be used to supply clean drinking water to local communities that may have limited access to potable water. For example, AREVA''s Trekkopje uranium mine in Namibia is the first seawater desalination plant to supply both a mine and the local region with water (see case study page 14).
plant can be modified easily to suit each site. Our mobile HDS pilot plant has been used for pilot studies in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Peru, Chile and USA. The pilot plant requires an area of 10 ft. by 12 ft. (3 m x m) to set up and is selfcontained for full operation, requiring only 16 hours for full assembly. This pilot plant

plants, or chillers, with a cooling capacity of more than 1 050 kW (ASHRAE 2001). Such systems are typically found in industrial settings like manufacturing plants and mines. This chapter, along with the majority of the thesis, focuses more specifically on large mine cooling systems. This is
Shaun MacRae delivers Enterprise Mine Production Management solutions to the mining industry in North America. He has been working in the mining systems consulting space for the past 10 years, deploying Enterprise Mining solutions in Canada, Mexico, Bulgaria, Australia, South
The new paste backfill system, with higher degree of accuracy for binder addition, will be designed to reduce operating costs of the mine and allow to fully exploit the underground deposits. The new facility is expected to be commissioned towards the end of 2020 with a capacity of 300 dry tonnes per hour.
The actual mine plan may generate 800 million in value, and yet be measured to generate 1,500 million in value because the value measurement is incorrect. Modern strategic mine planning, a new research initiative at the Colorado School of Mines, seeks to advance the field by introducing four major innovations into the existing framework.
Globally, the mining industry plays a leading role in waste management and is one of the few industries that recycles most of its own waste. Guidelines on waste management and mine closure have been developed at international, national, and regional levels and EnviroServ uses these as an advisory framework for best practices in mine waste management.
Industrial plants are complex constructs of products, systems and solutions. Mines tend to operate with a large number of independent pieces of equipment and systems from different suppliers. In the past, the electrical systems that provide the power for industrial processes have tended to exist in their own world.
The copper mining and smelting operations started up in 1955, at the companybuilt town of Murdochville in the Gasp region of eastern Quebec. The ore reserves were mined out over 45 years, and the mines and concentrator finally closed last October, leaving the smelter as a custom operation.
