The discovery of the first potash mine and the development of the potash industry since 1861
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, 2023AbstractThe birth of potash industry was 1861 in Staßfurt, Duchy of Prussia with commissioning of the first potash plant. During the mining of rock salt in Staßfurt, seams containing potassium had previously only been discovered by chance and initially treated as overburden.

Diesel exhaust and lung cancer mortality in potash mining
American Journal of Industrial Medicine, 1999Findings from experimental studies on rodents and from epidemiological studies suggest that diesel exhaust may cause lung cancer. There is evidence that in several occupations, e.g., truck drivers and railway workers, the risk of lung cancer increases with duration of employment, and exposure to diesel exhaust provides the most likely explanation for ...

Exposure assessment in German potash mining
International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health, 2007Between 1995 and 2003 a longitudinal study on miners in two German potash mines was planned and performed by BAuA in collaboration with K+S and IGF. Aim was to correlate exposure data to the results of medical examination of the miners in the respective mines' workforce and to use the detailed exposure investigation as a tool for risk assessment by the

Time-dependent hydraulic fracturing in Potash mines
International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1991Abstract This paper investigates by numerical methods the cause(s) of mine seismicity and mine floding occuring at several potash mines in Saskatchewan, Canada. To assit in the investigation, a finite-element model based on visoelelastic/ viscoplatic material behaviour has been utilized.

Elemental Carbon Levels at a Potash Mine
Applied Occupational and Environmental Hygiene, 1997Abstract A survey of worker exposures in a potash mine and mill was undertaken to evaluate diesel exposures during the feasibility effort of an epidemiologic study. Nineteen occupations were sampled. Results were averaged into six underground groups and three surface groups. Elemental carbon exposures, a diesel surrogate measure, were similar among all

Decommissioning planning for Saskatchewan's potash mines
2009Saskatchewan's potash producing companies are now in the process of developing decommissioning and reclamation (D&R) plans for potash mines which were in operation many years before these plans were required by provincial regulations. The major problem is to develop a plan for the extensive piles of potash tails now stored on the surface in tails ...

Some Considerations in the Productivity of Potash Mines
Proceedings of the Human Factors Society Annual Meeting, 1982Potash is one of the principal resources in the province of Saskatchewan. Its mining and production involves the efforts of men and machinery. Increases in productivity to meet increases in demand can be brought about by understanding and improving the work, environment and operator related human factors.
