Book excerpt: The mining industry has contributed significantly to Australia's recent prosperity - with favourable terms of trade over the period 2003-04 to 2006-07 contributing to increased incomes - but productivity in the sector has fallen markedly. According to Australian Bureau of Statistics estimates, MFP in the mining sector declined by 24 per cent between 2000-01 and 2006-07. This report examined the reasons for the decline. Conventional measures of productivity growth in the sector should be interpreted carefully for two reasons. Resource deposits are non-renewable, and depleted by ongoing extraction. As deposits are depleted, the quality and accessibility of remaining reserves generally decline. This typically results in the need for increased inputs of capital and labour per unit of output, and therefore acts as a drag on conventionally measured MFP. This paper estimated that, over the last three decades, with resource depletion effects removed, MFP in mining grew at an average rate of 2.5 per cent per year, compared with 0.01 per cent per year as conventionally measured. Evidence indicates that there is a delay of approximately three years between initial investment in new mining projects and full output capacity. Since new investment is generally recorded immediately as an increase in capital inputs, a surge in investment in mining can have a temporary negative effect on MFP. Short-term movements in MFP may therefore reflect changes in investment patterns, rather than the fundamental efficiency with which inputs are combined to produce outputs.

This book takes a holistic approach in addressing each issue from the perspective of its impact on the coal mining operation and industry as a whole. - Explains how to effectively produce coal within existing environmental constraints - Encapsulates the latest health and safety research and technological advances in the coal mining industry - Written by authors who have developed the latest technology for coal mines
Download or read book Evolutionary and Revolutionary Technologies for Mining written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-03-14 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Office of Industrial Technologies (OIT) of the U. S. Department of Energy commissioned the National Research Council (NRC) to undertake a study on required technologies for the Mining Industries of the Future Program to complement information provided to the program by the National Mining Association. Subsequently, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health also became a sponsor of this study, and the Statement of Task was expanded to include health and safety. The overall objectives of this study are: (a) to review available information on the U.S. mining industry; (b) to identify critical research and development needs related to the exploration, mining, and processing of coal, minerals, and metals; and (c) to examine the federal contribution to research and development in mining processes.

Book excerpt: For too long, maintenance has been regarded as a ""necessary evil"" rather than a vital contributor to effective mining operations. Today's enlightened mining managers are realizing that a new approach is urgently needed. Quality maintenance is far too important to be left solely in the hands of maintenance. An integrated, well-understood, companywide strategy is essential to succeed in today's fiercely competitive, high-stakes marketplace.
