Book Description
Today's best practice in environmental mine-waste management requires a thorough understanding of the wastes produced. The knowledge of mine wastes represents a new interdisciplinary science and this book provides an introductory, descriptive and analytic overview of the wastes produced in the mineral industry. It describes the characterization, prediction, monitoring, disposal and treatment as well as environmental impacts. Intended for undergraduate courses, it systematically builds the reader’s understanding and knowledge of the wastes produced, their physical and chemical characteristics, and how to deal responsibly with them on a short and long-term basis. The text employs 22 case studies spanning the world’s mineral industry that elucidate best practice and specific challenges in mine-waste management and site rehabilitation.

Book Description
Managing Mining and Minerals Processing Wastes: Concepts, Design and Applications presents fundamental knowledge in waste management in mining and minerals processing and summarizes recent advances. The book offers readers insights into innovative ways to manage waste in the mining and minerals industry. Sections cover a brief introduction to this topic and an explanation of waste generation, and how to manage the six types of waste, including waste rock, mill tailings, coal refuse and coal fly ash, quarry waste, metallurgical slugs and washery rejects. The title then emphasizes the management of hazardous waste, the acid mine drainage and the lifecycle assessment of waste management. Finally, the book considers current and emerging challenges. This publication offers a comprehensive background to waste management in mining and minerals processing and a summary of recent advances and innovative strategies for managing each kind of waste. Presents the background to waste management in minerals and mining, also summarizing recent advances Provides an accessible introduction to the current state of, and future prospects for, waste management Helps readers increase their usable knowledge on waste management in mining and minerals engineering Offers new insights into how waste can be managed in innovative ways Covers hazardous waste, acid mine drainage, lifecycle assessment and emerging issues

Book Description
Mining and mineral processing operations in Canada produce about 650 x 106 metric tons of mineral waste annually. This waste is composed of broken rock from open pits and underground mines, coarse mill rejects from screening and heavy media separation processes, and fine mill tailings from screening, magnetic separation, and flotation processes. Most wastes have limited potential for reuse because of their high impurity content or remote location. However, some are favorably located and of interest because of contained metals and minerals or inherent physical and chemical characteristics. Waste utilization is an attractive alternative to disposal because disposal costs and potential pollution problems are reduced or even eliminated and resources are conserved. Waste rock could be used as landfill, in roadbed and dam construction, as railroad ballast, as aggregate in concrete and asphalt mixes, and, for the finer sizes of waste, as construction sand, as an additive to concrete and asphalt mixes, in brick and block manufacture, in the manufacture of thermal insulation, for the recovery of valuable metals or minerals, and as mineral fillers. Examples of the commercial utilization of a number of such wastes are noted.
