This book was released on 2016 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepare for your Professional Engineer exam with this 8th edition of SME's study guide. This handy workbook lets you know what to expect and provides the opportunity to practice your test-taking skills. The text covers what licensing can do for you, outlines the engineering licensure process, highlights the steps to licensure, summarizes the application process, and provides test-taking strategies specific to the PE exam. The text also includes a chapter on ethics for professional engineers and details the rules of professional conduct from the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES). The Study Guide provides the important references that should be studied for the PE exam as well as a list of other helpful resources. Perhaps the most useful element is a sample test, including the solutions, that is similar in content and format to the actual Principles and Practice of Engineering licensure exam. Although the practice exam cannot include all the possible subject matter that may appear on the actual exam, you'll find it beneficial to practice answering the types of questions that will appear on the test. The Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration (SME) advances the worldwide mining and minerals community through information exchange and professional development. SME plays a central role in the licensure process for professional engineers through its Professional Engineers Exam Committee and its affiliation with NCEES.

This book was released on 2019-02-01 with total page 2258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This landmark publication distills the body of knowledge that characterizes mineral processing and extractive metallurgy as disciplinary fields. It will inspire and inform current and future generations of minerals and metallurgy professionals. Mineral processing and extractive metallurgy are atypical disciplines, requiring a combination of knowledge, experience, and art. Investing in this trove of valuable information is a must for all those involved in the industry—students, engineers, mill managers, and operators. More than 192 internationally recognized experts have contributed to the handbook’s 128 thought-provoking chapters that examine nearly every aspect of mineral processing and extractive metallurgy. This inclusive reference addresses the magnitude of traditional industry topics and also addresses the new technologies and important cultural and social issues that are important today.

Download or read book Minerals Critical Minerals and the U S Economy written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2008-03-11 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minerals are part of virtually every product we use. Common examples include copper used in electrical wiring and titanium used to make airplane frames and paint pigments. The Information Age has ushered in a number of new mineral uses in a number of products including cell phones (e.g., tantalum) and liquid crystal displays (e.g., indium). For some minerals, such as the platinum group metals used to make cataytic converters in cars, there is no substitute. If the supply of any given mineral were to become restricted, consumers and sectors of the U.S. economy could be significantly affected. Risks to minerals supplies can include a sudden increase in demand or the possibility that natural ores can be exhausted or become too difficult to extract. Minerals are more vulnerable to supply restrictions if they come from a limited number of mines, mining companies, or nations. Baseline information on minerals is currently collected at the federal level, but no established methodology has existed to identify potentially critical minerals. This book develops such a methodology and suggests an enhanced federal initiative to collect and analyze the additional data needed to support this type of tool.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minerals, Metals and Sustainability examines the exploitation of minerals and mineral products and the implications for sustainability of the consumption of finite mineral resources and the wastes associated with their production and use. It provides a multi-disciplinary approach that integrates the physical and earth sciences with the social sciences, ecology and economics. Increasingly, graduates in the minerals industry and related sectors will not only require a deep technical and scientific understanding of their fields (such as geology, mining, metallurgy), but will also need a knowledge of how their industry relates to and can contribute to the transition to sustainability. Minerals, Metals and Sustainability is an important reference for students of engineering and applied science and geology; practising engineers, geologists and scientists; students of economics, social sciences and related disciplines; professionals in government service in areas such as resources, environment and sustainability; and non-technical professionals working in the minerals industry or in sectors servicing the minerals industry.
