February / March 2012

WHAT IS THE BEST DUST CONTROL PRODUCT FOR ROADS?  Spend an hour at an open pit mine and you will quickly discover the most popular dust control agent for dirt roads – water.  Not only is it environmentally friendly, it is relatively cheap if the mine has its own well.  Best of all, it’s effective as long as it stays on the dirt.  However, most miners don’t realize that using water for dust control is penny wise and gallon foolish.

Communication, Public Relations And Image: How Does Mining View Itself ?    Public acceptance and understanding of the mining industry, particularly regarding issues of human safety and environmental threats, have probably never appeared more critical than they are right now. These concerns have always, of course, been “sticking points” in the collective human eye, but as advancing communication technology continues to both perceptively shrink our planet and expand our home and world overview, disseminating accurate information about mineral and resource development becomes increasingly crucial.

Don’t Forget The Threat Of Heavy Metals When we think of mine safety, we think of heavy machinery accidents, rock falls, and silicosis.  However, there are equally threatening, but less visible problems according to occupational health experts.  According to them, the hazards caused by heavy metals are often underestimated because they don’t cause immediate problems, but lead to long term health problems and even cancer.  And, they threaten a long term liability in this law suit crazy era.
