A change in cash flow strategies may accelerate the mining industry standing into net zero

Demand for metals for renewable energy infrastructure and electric vehicles is likely to increase

in near future, driving up prices. However, mining companies have little appetite for investing in capital-intensive projects with long lead times or for the perennial challenges of permitting so their

strategies aren’t yet focused on the growth. Moreover, the past decade was largely spent rebuilding balance sheets due to low commodities price. The remainder of the decade leads to more cautious choices. Consequentially, to...

The soil abrasion test apparatus: a literature review

The wear phenomenon plays a fundamental role in excavation work, as it directly affects

times and costs. While prediction models are available in the literature for rock applications,

a standardized procedure for predicting wear is not yet available for soils. In this

work, the Soil Abrasion Test Apparatus (SATA) is used to study the wear dependence from

the moisture content. 6 different types of soils were tested by varying the moisture content

and results were obtained in terms of weight loss...
