Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in Mining: An Integrated Institutional and Agency Theory Perspective

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mining is one of the foundations of economic development but has historically been associated with severe socioenvironmental impacts, such as ecosystem degradation, displacement of traditional communities, and large‐scale disasters. In this context, corporate social responsibility (CSR) plays a central role as a mechanism for legitimizing ...

The Impacts of Chief Sustainability Officers' Structural Power on Corporate Social Responsibility Performance

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extant literature assumes that powerful executives can wield their influence with minimal opposition from lower‐power actors. We reconsider this assumption by incorporating the coalitional view in which lower‐power actors can mobilize coalitions to resist.

Geological and geotechnical challenges on the Great Dyke of Zimbabwe and their impact on hardrock pillar design

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The Great Dyke of Zimbabwe is notable for its rich platinum group metal deposits but poses significant geological and geotechnical challenges due to its complex rock types and structural features. Traditional pillar design methods are insufficient for addressing these complexities; the study suggests incorporating advanced techniques such as machine ...

Permeability of granite from a shallow buried mountain pipe gallery tunnel under unloading confining pressure

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Triaxial compression tests under unloading confining pressure conditions were conducted to systematically analyze the permeability behavior of granite retrieved from the different classification surrounding rocks. Abstract The rock mass within mountain tunnels undergoes complex changes in permeability, strength, and deformation during tunneling ...

Dynamic tensile strength and fracture evolution of characteristic shale with bedding and hole using linear regression theory

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The spiral conical perforations generated during methane in situ explosion fracturing operations lead to tensile fracture propagation in shale reservoirs being governed by the combined effects of impact pressure, bedding, and aperture under explosive loading. Using multiple regression analysis and digital image correlation technology, the mechanisms of
