Directory of Nevada Mine Operations January – December 2017 State of Nevada Department of Business & Industry Division of Industrial Relations Directory of Nevada Mine Operations January – December 2017 Mine Safety & Training Section 400 West King Street, Suite 210 Carson City, NV 89703 Telephone: (775) 684-7085 Fax: (775) 687-8259 E-Mail: [email protected] Website: dir.nv.gov/MSATS/home/ December 17, 2018 FOREWORD It is interesting to note that the Directory of Nevada Mine Operations has been annually written or published, in one form or another, by the State of Nevada, since the year 1909. The Directory of Nevada Mine Operations is published pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 512.151 and 512.241. Which authorizes the Administrator of the Division of Industrial Relations to collect information and statistics relative to mines, mining and the mineral industry of the state and to publish and make available the same for public inspection. The information contained in the Directory lists active mines operating for the period of January through December 2017, and is a result of the collection of information and statistics by the Mine Safety and Training Section of the Division of Industrial Relations, Nevada Department of Business & Industry. The Directory identifies: 1) each county in Nevada where mining operations are located; 2) the federal or state identification number assigned to the operation; 3) the type of mining operation; 4) the number of employees at the mining operation; 5) the operation name and location, and 6) the commodities produced from the mining operation. Nevada Gold production for 2017 is 5,641,538 million troy ounces, nearly 174,000 ounces higher than the 2016 production recorded. Silver production was 8,477,388 million ounces. While the mining industry is important to the economy in Nevada, the health and safety of its’ employees are of primary importance to the Mine Safety and Training Section of the Division of Industrial Relations, Nevada Department of Business and Industry. Our primary goal is to reduce the frequency and severity of on-the-job injuries, and the incidence of occupational disease. This goal is accomplished through the provision of safety training programs. Mine Safety courses provided, include, but are not limited to: New Inexperienced Miner Training Surface and Underground, which includes First Aid, CPR and Basic Mine Safety; Annual Refresher Training; and Instructor Training. These training programs are free of charge and are conducted on a scheduled basis throughout the State by the Mine Safety and Training Section. For a complete list of safety training courses available go to: dir.nv.gov/MSATS/Training/ In addition consultation and technical assistance is provided to mining operators by written request. Examples of technical assistance provided are: electrical ground resistance testing; analysis for dust and metal vapor samples; routine periodic inspections of compressed air receivers and pressure vessels; review of procedures; assistance in developing safety and health programs; and other information and expertise regarding specific mining problems. In Calendar year 2017, the Mine Safety and Training Section of the Division of Industrial Relations conducted 347 mine safety inspections, provided 3611 technical assistance/consultations, and conducted 106 training classes where 2474 mining employees were trained.

  • Newmont Mining Corporation Reduction of Conflict in The
    Draft Final Report to Newmont Mining Corporation Reduction of Conflict in the Extractive Industries Using Good Neighbor Agreements by Alexandra Masaitis Glenn C. Miller Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Science University of Nevada, Reno August, 2015 i Glenn C. Miller Alexandra Masaitis Reduction of conflicts in the extractive industries using Good Neighbor Agreements Abstract Conflicts between mining companies and communities are now prevalent in many countries of the world, both developed and developing. These conflicts have often resulted in delays of mine project development as well as adverse effects to the communities. Reduction of those conflicts has been shown to be best accomplished by good communication, transparency, and a willingness of each of the parties to both understand the positions of other participants, but also a willingness to compromise. One of the types of agreements that have shown success is termed a “Good Neighbor Agreement” (GNA). The needs for this project are to create an open dialog between the mining company and all interested parties who may have concerns regarding the social or environmental impacts from the mine, to minimize the possible conflicts and disagreements, and create the negotiation tools, which can be implemented any time, depending on the needs. In this case, an agreement is negotiated where good communication and frequent meetings are utilized, and the resulting agreement has sufficient penalties that if any of the signatories to the agreement fail to abide by that agreement, those penalties will be imposed. This process is often complicated, but ultimately has the potential to reduce threats of appeals or legal action, but at the same time may require elimination of certain practices.

Left to right: Juan Manuel Morales-Ramirez, Anita Harris, Bruce Wardlaw, Jack Stewart, and Barney Poole. Before his recent death, Bruce told John Keith that each person collected about 20 kilos of rock, and the hike out was a very long one. Anita was lagging behind, and Bruce dropped back to check on her. She said, “I just can’t make it with my samples—can you put them in your pack and not tell the others?” So Bruce hauled 40 kilos for the rest of the trip.

CLINE,† University of Nevada, Las Vegas, 4505 Maryland Parkway, Box 454010, Las Vegas, Nevada 89154-4010 ALBERT H. HOFSTRA, Mineral Resources Program, U.S. Geological Survey, Mail Stop 973, Box 25046, Denver, Colorado 80225 JOHN L. MUNTEAN, Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology, Mail Stop 178, University of Nevada, Reno, Nevada 89557-0088 RICHARD M. TOSDAL, AND KENNETH A. HICKEY Mineral Deposit Research Unit, University of British Columbia, 6339 Stores Road, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6T 1Z4 Abstract Carlin-type Au deposits in Nevada have huge Au endowments that have made the state, and the United States, one of the leading Au producers in the world. Forty years of mining and numerous studies have pro- vided a detailed geologic picture of the deposits, yet a comprehensive and widely accepted genetic model re- mains elusive. The genesis of the deposits has been difficult to determine owing to difficulties in identifying and analyzing the fine-grained, volumetrically minor, and common ore and gangue minerals, and because of postore weathering and oxidation. In addition, other approximately contemporaneous precious metal deposits have overprinted, or are overprinted by, Carlin-type mineralization. Recent geochronological studies have led to a consensus that the Nevada deposits formed ~42 to 36 m.y. ago, and the deposits can now be evaluated in the context of their tectonic setting. Continental rifting and deposi- tion of a passive margin sequence followed by compressional orogenies established a premineral architecture of steeply dipping fluid conduits, shallow, low dipping “traps” and reactive calcareous host rocks.

  • Annual Report Scaling Work-Based Learning Increases Impact for All Intermediary Services Pave a Pathway to Success
    2019–20 ANNUAL REPORT SCALING WORK-BASED LEARNING INCREASES IMPACT FOR ALL INTERMEDIARY SERVICES PAVE A PATHWAY TO SUCCESS years MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT 2019 was a year that GPSEd saw steady expansion of our work-based learning intermediary services throughout the Midwest and beyond. With new partnerships across more industries and additional services added across the work-based learning continuum, we were poised to support more students on their journey to proud and productive lives. With 2020’s global pandemic thrusting our communities into unchartered territories, we focused our efforts to support our partners by adapting our programs and learning, so that we could continue developing our students into the next generation workforce. I am so proud of the commitment we made to help prevent a widening of the skills gap that remains critical to our economic recovery. It put the joy back into 2020 having it be GPSEd’s 20th Anniversary and provided us with more motivation to make 2021 our biggest year yet! Despite the challenges that faced both schools and businesses, as well as the vulnerable population of students we serve in our WI-based Manufacturing Youth Apprenticeship Program, we stayed the course and proudly held a virtual graduation. This ceremonious occasion sent 99 more students into the next chapter of their lives with a high school diploma, as well as credentials and industry certifications that put them on a pathway to prosperity. Work also continued on the development of new partnerships that included a virtual academy in Oregon and a high school district in DuPage County, Illinois in which we are working to expand work-based learning experiences to its educational offerings.
