Current Developments in Uk Mining Projects
CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS IN UK MINING PROJECTS C P Broadbent1) and C A Blackmore1) 1)Wardell Armstrong International Ltd, 46 Chancery Lane, London WC2A 1JE, UK 1 Introduction In October 2017 The Mining Technology Division (MTD) of the IOM3 organised a highly successful conference “Current Developments in the UK Mining Industry”. The aims and objectives of the conference was to define the then current state of the UK Mining Industry1. This conference was a great success and, with the exception of a presentation on Wolf Minerals Ltd, Hemerdon Project, gave the definitive status of most major UK Mining Projects. This paper provides an update of many of these projects. Although the last UK deep pit coal mine, Kellingley Colliery, North Yorkshire closed in December 20152 and was capped off in March 2016. The UK still has large reserves of available fossil fuels and many types of industrial minerals and metals are found in the diverse geology of the UK. Presently there are a number of major initiatives active making 2018, despite events at Hemerdon, one of the most active years in recent times for “new” UK mining ventures. The locations of the projects covered in this paper are shown in Figure 1. 1) 1 Sirius Minerals Plc 2 British Fluorspar Limited 3 West Cumbria Mining 4 Cornish Lithium Limited 5 South Crofty – Strongbow Exploration 8 6 Cornwall Resources Limited – Redmoor Project 7 Dalradian Gold Limited – Curraghinalt Project 8 Scotgold Resources – Cononish Mine 7 3 1 9 Anglesea Mining Plc – Parys Mountain 10 Wolf Minerals Limited - Drakelands Mine 2 Figure 1: Location of the projects c 9 o vered in this paper this paper 10 6 4 5 1 Current Developments – The UK Mining Industry – Presentations at MTD Conference, London 4-5 October 2017 2 Dodgson, L. -

Kinetics of Leaching of Covellite in Ferric-Sulfate
KINETICS OF LEACHING OF COVELLITE IN FERRIC-SULFATE-SULFURIC ACID MEDIA by Carlos Angeles B.Eng., Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, 2011 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF APPLIED SCIENCE in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Materials Engineering) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) August 2015 © Carlos Angeles, 2015 Abstract Hydrometallurgy methods to extract copper are becoming more frequently applied in modern industry. However, the leaching kinetics for certain minerals like covellite is poorly understood. This thesis investigates the kinetics of covellite leaching in a ferric-sulfate-sulfuric acid media, with an emphasis first placed on the understanding of the effect of the most common variables such as temperature and redox potential. A natural mineral sample of covellite and an ore sample from the Oyu Tolgoi project in Mongolia were obtained for the leaching studies. The leaching temperature was varied from 20° to 90°C, the total iron concentration varied from 0.1 mol/L to 0.5 mol/L, the Fe+3/Fe+2 ratios varied from 0.1 to 10. The leaching results showed that an increase in temperature will result in an increase in the rate and extent of copper extraction. However, the redox potential or Fe+3/Fe+2 ratio have little to no effect on the final copper extraction. These factors had only a modest impact on copper leach kinetics. The final copper extractions for covellite from Butte, Montana and covellite containing ore from Oyu Tolgoi at the same temperature were very similar. -

Woodsmith Project Liaison Group Forum Project Update: October 2020
WOODSMITH PROJECT LIAISON GROUP FORUM PROJECT UPDATE: OCTOBER 2020 1. Construction update At Woodsmith Mine the focus remains on preparing the three shafts – service shaft, production shaft and minerals transport system (MTS) shaft – for the main shaft sinking. The Shaft Boring Roadheader (SBR) has been successfully installed in the service shaft at the depth of 120m ready to start shaft sinking by the end of the year. It will be boring down to a depth of 1,600m. The production foreshaft is complete and the excavation of the inner shaft has almost reached 120m. The SBR for this shaft is currently being assembled on site. For the MTS shaft, work is ongoing to fit-out and commission the Galloway, hoist and winch systems before the main shaft sinking starts by the end of the year. A drill and blast method will be used to sink this shaft and neighbours will soon be provided with information about the blasting notification procedure. With respect to the tunnel, the tunnel boring machine (TBM) - named Stella Rose by local school children - has made great progress and has now reached 9.5km on its way to Lockwood Beck. As the advance rate of the TBM has been greater than we anticipated, we are not planning to launch a second TBM from Lockwood and will continue with Stella Rose. This means that whilst we still need a shaft for ventilation at Lockwood Beck, it is now required to be 3.2m in diameter, which is smaller than initially proposed. The method that will be used to sink the shaft is called ‘blind boring’ and replaces the ‘drill and blast’ method previously proposed. -

An Integrated Assessment of Torch Lake Area of Concern Noel R. Urban, Carol A. MacLennan, Judith A. Perlinger Michigan Technological University Funding provided by Michigan Sea Grant This is Contribution No. 53 of the Great Lakes Research Center at Michigan Technological University Calumet & Hecla operations in Lake Linden ca 1940. In the foreground are the Calumet and Hecla stamp mills with the stacks of the power house. Photo courtesy of Michigan Tech Archives. Acknowledgments The authors thank Michigan Sea Grant for funding to enable this integrated assessment. Without the support, insights, historical knowledge and perspectives offered by Sharon Baker, MDEQ site coordinator for many years, this project would not have been possible. We also owe tremendous thanks to the two students, Ankita Mandelia and Emma Schwaiger-Zawisza, whose thesis research contributed major parts of this report. Other people who have contributed to our understanding of the site and its history are too numerous to mention individually, but include state and federal agency personnel, colleagues at MTU and the Keweenaw National Historic Park, TLPAC members, and community members. Administration and staff members at Sea Grant were very helpful in administering the grant, creating and maintaining a web site for the project (http://www.miseagrant.umich.edu/torchlake/), and facilitating compilation of the final report. The assessment was greatly improved thanks to the contributions of eight anonymous reviewers representing agency, scientist, and local citizen viewpoints. -
