Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Stake in the Future is a comprehensive study of the Whitehorse Mining Initiative, which was first conceived by the leaders in the Canadian mining industry. The goal was to revitalize the mining industry, attract new investment and forge an alliance with major stakeholders such as government, environmental groups, First Nations, the mining industry, and labour. The book examines the political, cultural, and policy issues involved in developing a new consenus-based approach to resolving land and resource use disputes with particular focus on a national multi-stakeholder initiative in the mineral sector.

Book excerpt: THE FUTURE OF CANADA'S MINING SECTOR: SUSTAINABLE GROWTH BEYOND THE GLOBAL DOWNTURN Report of the Standing Committee on Natural Resources James Maloney Chair MARCH 2017 42nd PARLIAMENT, 1st SESSION Published under the authority of the Speaker of the House of Commons SPEAKER'S PERMISSION Reproduction of the proceedings of the House of Commons and its Committees, in whole or in part and in any mediu [...] According to Marian Campbell Jarvis of NRCan, the challenge facing Canada's minerals and metals sector is twofold: "the first is the economic competitiveness of Canadian operations and maintaining an attractive investment climate, and the second is one of social acceptance, environmental performance, community involvement, and a sense of shared benefit and risk."14 The Committee heard that the Can [...] In many remote and northern regions, the development of mineral deposits is contingent on the availability of basic infrastructure and services, such as railways, roads and electric power.23 Furthermore, innovation and technological upgrades can address some of the industry's economic and environmental challenges - for example, by improving the productivity, energy efficiency and cost-effectivenes [...] These incentives support the discoveries of new deposits, and advance the development of mining projects and the creation of socio-economic opportunities across the country. [...] Industry is involved in the management board and various technical committees "to ensure that the project is really geared to the needs that may have an impact and bring the Canadian mining industry to another level."91 B. Productive Mining: from Exploration to Value-Added Products The Committee heard of a wide range of innovations, technologies and initiatives that aim to improve mining operation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the challenges and opportunities at the intersection of the global mining sector and local communities by focusing on a number of international cases drawn from various locations in Canada, the Philippines, and Scandinavia. Mining’s contribution to economic development varies greatly across countries. In some, it has been a major engine of development, but in others, disputes have erupted over land use, property rights, environmental damage, and revenue sharing. Corporate social responsibility programs are increasingly relied upon to manage company-community relations, yet conflicts persist in many settings, with significant costs for companies and communities. Exploring the many factors and drivers that characterize relationships among different actors within the sector, the volume contributes towards the development of practical wisdom, collective understanding, common sense, and prudence required for the mining sector and community partners to realize the economic potential and social and environmental responsibilities of non-renewable resource development. The book examines case studies from Canada, Scandinavia, and the Philippines, three regions amongst the world's top countries of mining operations. Drawing on their extensive experience in these regions, the contributors explore distinctive mining sectors in the Global North and South, the variation surrounding different types of extractive industries, and at different scales, and the legal processes in place to protect local communities. Key themes include corporate social responsibility, impact assessment, foreign ownership, Indigenous Peoples, gender, local insurgency, and mining disasters as well as climate change. The book identifies areas of future research and pathways to achieving stronger, respectful, and mutually beneficial relationships at the nexus of global mineral extraction and local communities. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of the extractive industries, natural resource management, sustainable business and corporate social responsibility, Indigenous studies, and sustainable planning and development.

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: The question of the vulnerability of the mining sector is not new: mineral resources are finite, the viability of mines and associated communities is primarily determined by global mineral prices, and the question of the vulnerability of the mining sector to global economic conditions has long been a pre-occupation of economists. [...] The report has 8 chapters, beginning with an assessment of the importance of mining in Canada, analysis of climate change scenarios for Canada, and review of the literature on climate change impacts, adaptation, vulnerability and mitigation in the Canadian mining sector before outlining the research approach and key research questions guiding the study. [...] Precipitation • In the summer and under the A1B and A2 scenarios, precipitation levels are projected to decrease in the southern parts of the province, specifically in the Vancouver region and Vancouver Island. [...] TSM is a broader commitment by the Mining Association of Canada's member companies to improve their performance in areas of sustainable development and to enhance the reputation and credibility of the Canadian mining industry with its communities of interest and the public. [...] Absent in the trade journal literature, however, is a thorough discussion and rigorous evaluation of what climate change will mean for the physical aspects of mine operations both today and in the future, and capacity of the sector to adapt to change.
