This study investigates how anthropogenic resources could fit into the United Nations Framework Classification for Fossil Energy and Mineral Reserves and Resources 2009 (UNFC-2009). Compared to geogenic resources, anthropogenic deposits are more heterogene ...
A large fraction (47%) of the world's uranium is mined by a technique called “In Situ Recovery” (ISR). This mining technique involves the injection of a leaching fluid (acidic or alkaline) into a uranium-bearing aquifer and the pumping of the resulting sol ...
Renewable energy (RE) for the mining industry has perspectives for an implementation and development confirms by the case studies from the mining countries. The European Union focuses on increasing of the capacity of RE generation and consumption according ...

Mobility is a central aspect of our life, and our movements reveal much more about us than simply our whereabouts. In this thesis, we are interested in mobility and study it from three different perspectives: the modeling perspective, the information-theor ...
Mining activities in cold regions are vulnerable to snow avalanches. Unlike operational facilities, which can be constructed in secure locations outside the reach of avalanches, access roads are often susceptible to being cut, leading to mine closures and ...
