Environmental and toenail metals concentrations in copper mining and non mining communities in Zambia

International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health, 2014
Copper mining contributes to increased concentrations of metals in the environment, thereby increasing the risk of metals exposure to populations living in and around mining areas. This study investigated environmental and toenail metals concentrations of non-occupational human exposure to metals in 39 copper-mining town residents and 47 non-mining ...

Linkages between mining and non-mining sectors in Botswana

Mineral Economics, 2016
Over the past decades, a negative view of mining has emerged questioning the positive relationship between mineral extraction and economic development with particular attention to developing countries. The debate remains unresolved as mining continues to be an enclave sector in many resource-rich developing countries.

Rationale for the Procedure of Reclamation of Non-mining Sites of Ballast Pits

Ecology and Industry of Russia, 2016
The results of field research of conditions of creation and characteristics of a forest ecosystem at non-mining sites of depleted roadstone and ballast pits are given. Ecological and economic rationales for the procedure of reclamation of non-mining sites of ballast pits with backhoe excavators are given.

Cycles in Non-mining Business Investment [PDF]

open access: possible, 2014
Growth in private non-mining business investment has been quite subdued over the past few years relative to the cyclical upswings seen in the 1980s and 1990s. Part of this weakness can be explained by cyclical factors that affect investment – such as a more moderate pace of growth in the output of, and demand for, non-mining goods and services. Further,

Determinants of Non-Mining Exports: A Regional Perspective [PDF]

open access: possible, 2004
The Chilean non-mining export sector has experienced a substantial increase over the last years, although exports to the main regions have evolved with different patterns. This work analyzes the role of the real exchange rate and world economic activity during the 1990-2001 period, after performing an extensive refinement and cleaning of export bundles

Bioaccumulation of Heavy Metals in Plants near Mining and Non-Mining Areas

Asian Journal of Water, Environment and Pollution, 2015
Plants take heavy metals from soil through different reactions. In the present study, heavy metals concentration in leaves and soil of few common plants like Bougainvillea glabra, Delonix regia and Azadirachta indica in mining and non-mining area has been determined. Effect of air pollution and metal content in soil on metal uptake by plant leaves has

Does Monetary Policy Affect Non-mining Business Investment in Australia? Evidence from BLADE

RBA Research Discussion Papers, 2023
We provide new evidence on the effect of monetary policy on investment in Australia using firm-level data. We find that contractionary monetary policy makes firms less likely to invest and lowers the amount they invest if they do so. The effects are similar for young and old firms, indicating that the decline in the number of young firms in Australia ...

Radon sources and impacts: a review of mining and non-mining issues

Reviews in Environmental Science and Bio/Technology, 2008
Radon is a ubiquitous natural carcinogen derived from the three primordial radionuclides of the uranium series (238U and 235U) and thorium series (232Th). In general, it is present at very low concentrations in the outdoor or indoor environment, but a number of scenarios can give rise to significant radiological exposures. Historically, these scenarios

An appraisal of biological responses and network of environmental interactions in non-mining and mining impacted coastal waters

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2015
The coastal waters of Goa and Ratnagiri lying on the West coast of India are influenced by terrestrial influx. However, Goa is influenced anthropogenically by iron-ore mining, while Ratnagiri is influenced by deposition of heavy minerals containing iron brought from the hinterlands.

Influencing Factor Analysis on Non-Mining Fracturing of Shaft Lining in Thick Topsoil Layer

Advanced Materials Research, 2013
Non-mining fracturing of shaft lining is a special mine geological disaster in Huadong thick alluvium Mining Districts, which is mainly induced by the additional stress result from compressive deformation of the bottom aquifer water loss. On the basis of summarizing the geological conditions and failure characteristics of non-mining fracturing of shaft
