This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results of selected projects on Exploration R & D, one of the major research areas implemented by the Commission of European Communities in Brussels on the subject of mineral raw materials, are presented on an international basis. All aspects of the geology and geochemistry of ore deposits and their host rocks are covered. Main headings are according to commodity, i.e. tungsten, chromite, and base metals, rather than by scientific criteria. The scope and subject matter varies from the metallogenic province to the individual deposit. The question of possible application to exploration methodology is explored in several papers. Particularly structural and geochemical techniques are discussed.

This book was released on 2009-11-03 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Document from the year 2009 in the subject Law - Civil / Private, Trade, Anti Trust Law, Business Law, , language: English, abstract: Mineral resources are essential for the existence and the development of our modern society. Metal resources are used for the production of a wide range of merchandise. Industrial minerals are broadly used for pharmaceuticals and chemical products. Energy is provided on a large scale by non-renewable mineral resources, such as coal. The European Union represents a territory of low mineral potential. Of course there are several exceptions, like Poland having a high production of copper. The European Union is not able to cover the needs of the industry from domestic deposits and is therefore highly dependent on imports. The mineral potential of Western Europe has been used on a very high scale because the mineral wealth was already known in ancient times, whereas the deposits in Southeast Europe have not been exploited on such an extended scale as in Western Europe. Both economic and legal situation of many Southeast European countries are not well known in the Western world. This fact is caused by the changing political situation during the last decades, the therewith connected underdeveloped mining industry and a high complexity of legal requirements. In 2007, Bulgaria and Romania became members of the European Union. They represent the first Southeast European countries being accepted into the European Union. Croatia, Macedonia and Turkey are considered candidate countries, all located in Southeastern Europe. The increasing importance of Southeast Europe for the enlargement of the European Union may upgrade the European economic situation and the mining sector, resulting in reduced import dependence. However, it is essential to upgrade the Southeast European mining industry, which should preferably be done by foreign companies already having experience in mining. Two parameters are essential for investments in the mining industry: the existence of mineral deposits and a consistent legal framework. This books deals with both issues. The aim is to give general and detailed information on the overall economic, mineral economic and legal situation in Southeast European countries as well as to evaluate and compare both issues. This book combines information and research data, which was collected for more than two years and forms the basis for a solid line of discussion as well as for horizontal and vertical integrated evaluation and comparison.

Download or read book Mineral Resources Economy 1 written by Floriant Fizaine and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The constant increase in the consumption of mineral resources, as well as the growing awareness of their exploitation, is causing deep concern within the scientific community. This concern is justified by the fact that the energy transition will increase the pressure on these resources, as renewable energies require an increased and more diversified quantity of mineral materials. This book presents an overview of the exploitation of these mineral resources, where the natural, regulatory and environmental constraints interfere with economic, financial and geopolitical interests. By mobilizing the fields of the humanities, geosciences and engineering, it also analyzes the challenges that the energy transition will encounter, challenges related to the contradictory effects that the acceleration of the extraction of these resources will have on their physical availability, the economies that exploit them and the populations that live off of them
Download or read book Metallic Resources 1 written by Sophie Decrée and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metallic resources play a huge role in many fields: in the energy transition, the development of new technologies and the production and storage of green energy. Metallic Resources 1 presents various studies in notable European metallogenic regions or deposits that enable us to tackle the question of the concentration of metals, especially strategic metals, in various geodynamic settings. An understanding of the geological processes that lead to the formation of deposits and influence their concentrations in the Earth's crust is of the utmost importance when it comes to uncovering new mineral resources. This book puts forward various different methodological approaches necessary in the study of deposits of metallic resources, from field observations to microanalysis. A study of specific geo-politico-economic frameworks is also presented.

This book was released on 2019-11-14 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book (Special Issue) presents impressive new results related to a wide spectrum of occurrences of platinum-group minerals (PGM) and natural compounds enriched in platinum-group elements (PGE), which are associated with various complexes and deposits, such as Uralian-Alaskan-type complexes, layered intrusions and placers. The geographical locations of the involved deposits and complexes include, on a truly international scale, different areas of the Urals, Western and Eastern Sayans and Gornaya Shoria in Siberia, Southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt in China, Northern Michigan, USA, South Africa and Zimbabwe, etc. Of particular interest is the first description of a new species of PGM, thalhammerite (approved by the Commission on New Minerals, Nomenclature and Classification of the International Mineralogical Association), which is a new species of palladium-silver sulfobismuthide discovered in the Noril’sk region of Russia. Additionally, comprehensive reviews, on compositional variations in Pt–Fe alloy minerals and processes of transformations of PGM in exogenic environments, are presented which will also attract attention from international readers.

Download or read book Giant Metallic Deposits written by Peter Laznicka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-02 with total page 960 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metals in the earth's crust are very unevenly distributed and, traditionally, a small number of ore deposits, districts or countries have dominated the world supply and have influenced commodity prices. The importance of exceptionally large, or rich, deposits has greatly increased in the age of globalization when a small number of international corporations dominate the metals market, based on few very large ore deposits, practically anywhere in the world. Search for giant orebodies thus drives the exploration industry: not only the in-house teams of large internationals, but also hundreds of junior companies hoping to sell their significant discoveries to the "big boys". Geological characteristics of giant metallic deposits and their setting and the politico-economic constraints of access to and exploitation in prospective areas have been a "hot topic" in the past fifteen years, but the knowledge generated and published has been one-sided, scattered and fragmented. This is the first comprehensive book on the subject that provides body of solid facts rather than rapidly changing theories, written by author of the Empirical Metallogeny book series and founder of the Data Metallogenica visual knowledge system on mineral deposits of the world, who has had an almost 40 years long international academic and industrial experience. The book will provide abundant material for comparative research in metallogeny, practical information for the explorationists as to where to look for the "elephants", and some inspiration for commodity investors.
