Recovery of Rare Earth Elements by J Nkuna.pdf
Flotation, calcination and leaching tests on run of mine and discard coal, with mineralogy of the rare earth bearing grains. For processing researchers and waste stream owners.
Run of mine and discard coal carried total rare earth contents of 260 and 265 ppm, above the 130 ppm cut off grade used for coal. Flotation with an emulsion binder did not raise those concentrations in either the product or the tailings streams. Calcination did, lifting totals to between 285 and 289 ppm, with most rare earths leaching within the first fifteen minutes.

2006
Study of pay and bonus structures on South African coal mines across management, staff and operator grades, for human resources practitioners and mine managers reviewing incentive schemes.
What this report foundBuilds on an earlier productivity audit that identified fluctuating bonuses and incentives as an influence on output, safety and employee stress.

Builds on an earlier productivity audit that identified fluctuating bonuses and incentives as an influence on output, safety and employee stress. The work examines how salaries, production bonuses and safety bonuses are graded and distributed across employee categories, how workers perceive that distribution, and whether incentives in practice motivate production and safe working. Stress and morale are treated as measures of wellbeing.
Recharge in Rehabilitated Opencast Collieries
2019
Groundwater levels and pumping records from five rehabilitated opencast pits at South African collieries, for hydrogeologists and closure planners estimating post-mining water balances.
What this report foundRecharge factors of 23.5 per cent and 12.9 per cent were calculated at the two rehabilitated pits with complete data.
R1500,00
Recharge factors of 23.5 per cent and 12.9 per cent were calculated at the two rehabilitated pits with complete data. The higher value reflected surface drainage towards the pit centre and eroded topsoil; the lower one, a deep pit floor with well compacted spoil and intact cover. The rates are site specific and no generic formula could be derived.

Microgravity, resistivity based methods including self potential, and time domain electromagnetics are identified as able to detect and delineate shallow old workings, with controlled source audio magnetotellurics useful below about 30 metres. How well each performs depends on target depth, the material filling the void and the overburden, and has never been quantified. Field trials were planned to close that gap.
