Managing the waste rock storage design — can we build a waste rock dump that works? [PDF]
For a waste rock dump to be managed both during operations and at closure, a thorough understanding of the composition of the waste is an important requirement. A comprehensive block model should be prepared, with an appropriate materials management and placement plan developed in conjunction with the mining schedule.

ILLUMINATED CONCRETE USING ROCK CRUSHING WASTE
TLuminous products are obtained from architectural and decorative concrete using photoluminescent pigment, formed in various positions and any configuration that does not lose their architectural expressiveness over a long period of operation. The use of products with a glow effect provides increased safety at night and is an additional means of ...

Localized Sulfide Oxidation Limited by Oxygen Supply in a Full-Scale Waste-Rock Pile
Open-pit mines produce large amounts of waste rock that is placed on-site, often in tall, mixed-composition piles. These waste-rock piles pose environmental risks because their weathering (i.e., sulfide oxidation) may generate acidic and metal-laden ...
