Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePreliminary Studies Aimed at the Re-Opening of Pestarena Gold Mine (North-Western Alps, Italy)Andrea Giuliani, Giuseppe Mandrone, Piergiorgio RossettiGold, among all conventional metals subject to a progressive increase in value in the international market, has jumped powerfully into the spotlight during all economic crises. This contingency led to reconsider the dismissing process of some Italian mining sites and in particular at Pestarena- in the Anzasca Valley near Macugnaga (NW Alps) -the most important historical gold mine in the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 1 Sep 2015 · 7,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFormation of Vegetation Cover and Soil Quality Indicators at the Mine Sites of a Gold-Bearing Deposit (the Case of Kara-Agash, Kazakhstan)Vadim Chashkov, Aliya Bugubaeva et al.At present, the processes of natural recovery, vegetation coverage, and degraded lands of several coal, iron ore, uranium, and polymetallic mines and gold-bearing deposits are well-studied. The present study aims to identify opportunities to shape the soil layer and vegetation cover on reclaimed dumps/tailings of industrial waste and degraded land via artificial restoration. For this purpose, in July 2023, studies … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 16 Sep 2024 · 4,765 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEnvironmental Pollution by Heavy Metals in the Gold Mining Region of East CameroonDallou Guy Blanchard, Ngoa Engola Louis, Abdourahimi et al.The main objective of this study is to assess the level of heavy metals pollution in soil samples collected around gold mines located in Betaré Oya (BO) and Batouri (BA) in Eastern Cameroon. Elemental analysis of soil samples was carried out using Quant´X EDXRF spectrometer. Its sensitivity and accuracy were increased by using the Fundamental Parameter approach for quantification of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 7 Nov 2018 · 9,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSorption Extraction of Noble and Non-Ferrous Metals from Process Leaching SolutionsBagdaulet Kenzhalyevich Kenzhaliyev, Renata Ramilevna Iskhakova, Zamzagul Duisenovna DosymbayevaIn view of the annual increase in ore processing output for low grade or refractory gold-bearing ores, as well as recoverable raw materials, stricter requirements for completeness of gold extraction and environmental safety, the interest is rising in possible alternatives to substitute the cyanide process used in gold mining practice. One of such alternatives is to convert metals into solutions … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 11 · 18 Nov 2015 · 7,050 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Heavy Metals and Other Elements in Artisanal Gold Mining SoilsS. Girigisu, I. G.E. Ibeanu, D. J. Adeyemo, S. OkohProblem statement: The possible exposure of heavy elements to life as a result of artisanal gold mining activities can be of great concern because of its associated effect on health. Approach: Soil samples from the artisanal gold mining sites of Awwal and Bagega villages in Kebbi and Zamfara states of Nigeria were collected and analyzed for heavy and other elements … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 14 May 2012 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite

KheradmandProblem statement: The Muteh mining district is located in 70 km northeast of Golpaygan city within the Sanandaj-Sirjan metamorphic belt. There are 2 gold mines, 7 gold occurrences and numerous mineral indices in the Muteh gold district. There are few researches on Muteh gold district, but a detailed model is not clear yet. The aim of this study is to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,131 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Computational Optimized Extended Model for Mineral Potential Mapping Based on WofE MethodZiaii Mansour, Pouyan Ali, Ziaei MahdiThe multivariate fuzzy-c-means classifier is used to model extended weight of evidence (WofE) considering predictor maps. Approaches to mineral potential mapping based on WofE modeling generally use binary maps, whereas, real-world geospatial data are mostly multi-class or fuzzy-class in nature. The consequent reclassification of fuzzy-class maps into binary maps is a simplification that might result in a loss of information. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,561 accessesView PDFCite
