March 2014 ABSTRACT (1) Summary of the Study - Objectives of the Study consist of 1) compilation of existing condition and data collection on the mine environment and safety, 2) examination of information on the superiority of mine environmental technology owned by Japanese companies and organizations and to be usable to objective countries, and 3) investigation of the request on capacity development and personnel training. - The objective countries consist of eight countries including Angola, Zambia, Malawi, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Madagascar and South Africa. - The Study is composed of five steps, namely the Preparation work in Japan, First Site Investigation, Analysis work in Japan, Second Site Investigation and Compiling work in Japan. - The First Site Investigation, consisting of collecting data and information on the mine environment and safety, holding of Seminar, request of the personnel training of each country, was carried out in one month between November 11, 2013 and December 8, 2013. - Malawi and Zambia were selected as places for Second Site Investigation by consideration work in Japan after the First Site Investigation. The sites consist of three coal mines and small-scale mine for gems in Malawi, and two copper mines and one abandoned zinc-lead mine in Zambia. Finally, actual number of the objective sites reached eight sites. - The Second Site Investigation was conducted i) environment investigation, ii) soil sampling and analysis, iii) water sampling and analysis, iv) simple survey, and v) inspection for occurrence of pollution, scale of the pollution, mine environment, arrangement of issues, consideration of countermeasure of mine pollution control and current situation about mine environment and safety. - After the Second Site Investigation, comprehensive work was carried out to extract issues, to integrate information and to recommend several support projects for the future. Based on the collecting information during site investigations, current situations in respect of mine environment and safety for objective countries are summarized as follows; (Mine Management and Legislation related to the Mine Environment) - Each country had newly instituted or revised in 1990’s to 2000’s in order to aim a promotion of mining development as well as a sustainable development of mineral exploration and exploitation of minerals. - mining policies were shifted from mining depend on only specified minerals such as Au, diamond, etc. to the mineral exploration and exploitation of various kinds of mineral resources such as base metals, rare earth elements (REE) and energy resources (petroleum, natural gas and coal). - Several countries and areas still have problems of infrastructure building for the mine development and occur difficult to promote a foreign investment for the mineral exploration and exploitation. (Mining Condition) i - In South Africa, Zimbabwe and Zambia, various kinds of mineral resources has been historically developed for a long time. - In other countries, the development of mineral resources was relatively recent and further mineral exploration and mine development are expected because of high potential of mineral resources. Particularly, active mineral exploration and a few copper mines have been developed in the southwestward extension areas from the Copper Belt, located along the boundary between Zambia and Democratic Republic of the Congo, in Angola and Botswana (called as Kalahari Copper Belt). (Environmental Policy and Environmental Condition) - The environmental legislation, including Environmental (Basic) Law, Environmental Protection Act, etc., has mostly instituted in each country. The environmental impact assessment is mostly regulated within the Environmental (Basic) Law, and the Ministry of Environment is enforced to formulate the environmental policy. - The evaluation of environmental impact assessment concerning the mineral exploration and exploitation in the Ministry of Environment of the objective countries are entrusted to the ministry in charge of mining. However, staff in charge of environmental evaluation concerning the mining in each country are luck of practical experiences, therefore it is necessary to formulate and enforce a long-term personnel training. - Concerning the environmental protection such as an environmental management and monitoring plans, project enforcement person in most of countries has a responsible to carry out the environmental obligation according to the Mining Law. However, monitoring enforcement system in whole area of each country is not built yet, thus environmental condition including environmental pollution, hot spots, etc. in each objective country is not comprehended yet. - Environmental standards for air quality, water quality, soil quality, noise and vibration, etc. had mostly set up in objective countries, however a few environmental items are not set up in some countries. Therefore, it is necessary fully to install the environmental standards for the environmental evaluation. (Mine Pollution, its Potential and Measures) - Mine development of sulfide ore deposits such as base metals is rare in Angola, Malawi and Mozambique, therefore ore pollution is presently not found in these areas. However, those areas have also potential of mine pollution. - Other countries can be found mine pollutions such as acidic wastewater from mine sites, exhaust gas from smelters, etc. and much influence to the environment downwards. However, the environmental investigation and mitigation against the mine pollution is inefficient. - It is necessary to carry out environmental investigation by monitoring for understanding the environmental condition and formulate the technical guidelines, etc. for countermeasures and those enforcement. (Chemical Analysis) - Public laboratory under the ministry related to the environment or mining is not established in Angola and Mozambique, but under consideration. In other countries, the public laboratory is established under the Geological Survey or Ministry of Environment. - Concerning the analytical accuracy and components, the laboratory related to the Environment ii mostly aims environmental analysis, and the laboratory related to the Geological Survey mostly aims environmental analysis purposes to analyze ore mineral, geochemical exploration and inorganic analysis. - The Laboratory under the Environmental Management Agency in Zimbabwe carries out monitoring investigation and is planning to establish database of analytical results. (Mine Safety) - Statistic on disaster and accident in mines and smelters had been obtained in Botswana and Zimbabwe, but those of other countries was not obtained. - Concerning the mine safety, ministry and government agency in charge of each country are supervising operating mines such as ministerial direction, order, etc. without practical training for the mine safety. However, technical training of mine safety is periodically enforced by the Chamber of Mines in Zimbabwe. (Personnel Training and Request of Technical Training) - Each country has not specified personnel training program. - Requests from relevant ministries and agencies of each country to JICA are covered a wide range of categories, many persons and various period of training. (2) Recommendations On the basis of challenges in the each country that were

  • Support for Workers Displaced in the Decline of the Japanese Coal Industry: Formal and Informal Support Naoko Shimazaki Waseda University
    Support for Workers Displaced in the Decline of the Japanese Coal Industry: Formal and Informal Support Naoko Shimazaki Waseda University Japan’s coal industry met its demise following a number of stages of restruc- turing under policies to change the structure of the energy industry. More than 200,000 coal mine workers were displaced from 1955 onward. The task of providing measures for displaced workers was recognized as an issue to be addressed at national level and such initiatives were considered to have con- siderable significance for the interests of society as a whole. This led to the development of substantial support systems of the kind not seen in other in- dustries, and comprehensive measures were adopted to cover not only reemployment, but also relocation, housing, and vocational training. However, fundamental issues faced by the unemployed were left unresolved. Formal support therefore in fact relied on the strength of individual companies and re- gional communities, and developed distinct characteristics. The insufficiencies of the formal support systems were compensated for by informal support based on personal relationships which were characteristic of the unique culture of coal mining. In particular, there was a strong sense of solidarity among fel- low mine workers. The support for displaced workers included not only finan- cial assistance, but also individual support, such as individual counselling and employment assistance provided by former coal mine employees acting as counselors. The labor unions played a central role in developing these measures. Such support was very strongly in tune with the workers’ culture generated within coal mining communities. I. Coal Policy and Measures for Displaced Workers in Japan The coal industry is a typical example of industrial restructuring in Japan.

  • Overcoming the Challenges of Energy Scarcity in Japan
    Lund University Supervisor: Martin Andersson Department of Economic History August 2017 Overcoming the Challenges of Energy Scarcity in Japan The creation of fossil fuel import dependence Natassjha Antunes Venhammar EKHK18 Dependence on imported fossil fuels is a major issue in contemporary Japan, as this creates economic vulnerabilities and contributes to climate change. The reliance on imports has been increasing, despite efforts to diversify and conserve energy, and today imports supply over 90 percent of energy consumed in Japan. The aim of this study is to understand the context that contributed to the creation of this fossil fuel import dependence, and to examine how economic incentives and policy tools have been employed to mitigate the issue. This is done through a case study, using analytical tools such as thematic analysis and framing. It is argued that continued reliance on fossil fuel imports is due to a combination of; increasing consumption, absence of natural resource endowments, institutional structures, and alternative sources being considered unreliable or expensive.

  • 42 China-Malawi Relations
    Issue 4 AFRICAN December 2014 EAST-ASIAN AFFAIRS THE CHINA MONITOR China-Malawi relations: an analysis of trade patterns and development impli- cations by Theodora C. Thindwa* Centre for Security Studies, Mzuzu University Mzuzu, Malawi Abstract As China is emerging as a force to reckon with in the 21st century it has formed economic and political partnerships with a number of countries especially in Africa, including Malawi. There are contending views on China’s role in Africa with some viewing it as a neo-colonial power and others as Africa’s development partner. This paper investigates how China-Malawi relationship has contributed to economic development in Malawi. This limits the scope of the study to Chinese Government investments directly dealing with the Malawi Government. The article analyses Chi- na-Malawi trade patterns, the number of jobs created by Chinese investments and other contributions by China. Exploratory research design, aspects of descriptive research and mixed methods of analysis is employed to uncover the nature of China-Malawi relations between 2007 and 2012. Using secondary data sources and interviews with principal trade officers, the study found both positive and negative trends. The level of Malawian exports to China is low compared to Chinese exports to Malawi. This entails trade losses for Malawi which in turn has implications for development and also for the society that *Theodora C.

    Tectonophysics 375 (2003) 353–385 www.elsevier.com/locate/tecto A fundamental Precambrian–Phanerozoic shift in earth’s glacial style? D.A.D. Evans* Department of Geology and Geophysics, Yale University, P.O. Box 208109, 210 Whitney Avenue, New Haven, CT 06520-8109, USA Received 24 May 2002; received in revised form 25 March 2003; accepted 5 June 2003 Abstract It has recently been found that Neoproterozoic glaciogenic sediments were deposited mainly at low paleolatitudes, in marked qualitative contrast to their Pleistocene counterparts. Several competing models vie for explanation of this unusual paleoclimatic record, most notably the high-obliquity hypothesis and varying degrees of the snowball Earth scenario. The present study quantitatively compiles the global distributions of Miocene–Pleistocene glaciogenic deposits and paleomagnetically derived paleolatitudes for Late Devonian–Permian, Ordovician–Silurian, Neoproterozoic, and Paleoproterozoic glaciogenic rocks. Whereas high depositional latitudes dominate all Phanerozoic ice ages, exclusively low paleolatitudes characterize both of the major Precambrian glacial epochs. Transition between these modes occurred within a 100-My interval, precisely coeval with the Neoproterozoic–Cambrian ‘‘explosion’’ of metazoan diversity. Glaciation is much more common since 750 Ma than in the preceding sedimentary record, an observation that cannot be ascribed merely to preservation. These patterns suggest an overall cooling of Earth’s longterm climate, superimposed by developing regulatory feedbacks
