World of Mining Q2/2024

Focus Areas: The journal focuses on a variety of specialized topics in the fields of geology, materials science, and engineering. A central focus is on the fundamentals of lithium enrichment, from geological processes to ore mineral concentrates. Additionally, the resilient supply of critical and strategic raw materials for Germany is addressed, with a particular focus on the potentials in Africa. Other topics include innovative methods for controlling overbreak using hybrid design patterns in a railway tunnel and station cavern in the Himalayas, as well as a novel method for determining the Bond work index for red sediment placer ilmenite concentrate.

NEW TITLE
Landwirtschaftliche Rekultivierung im Rheinischen Braunkohlenrevier

Autor: Dr. Gerhard Dumbeck
Number of pages: 391, Number pictures 161, Tabs 18, ISBN: 978-3-935797-34-4, First Edition 2023
Issuer: GDMB Gesellschaft der Metallurgen und Bergleute e.V.

This work combines the author’s wealth of experience in the field of agricultural recultivation, gathered over three decades, supplemented by extensive research in RWE’s historical corporate archives. The author describes the various process techniques and the properties of recultivated and meliorated soils and conveys the experience gained from numerous practical examples and research projects that have taken place. It is shown how agricultural recultivation has improved from partly unsatisfactory results in the 1960s to the 1980s, based on many years of experience, and how the legal regulations have been further developed.
