A systematic analysis of the mineral resource base (MRB) strategically important minerals for Ukrainian economy is carried out. Four categories strategic from point view their investment attractiveness are identified: traditional (iron, manganese, titanium, uranium, kaolin, sand molding, building stones, quartz raw materials, refractory clay); highly promising (rare earths, zirconium and hafniu...

Extremes in soil mineral supply alter the metallome of seeds much less than that of their herbage. The underlying mechanisms of mineral homeostasis and the “puzzle of seed filling” are not yet understood. Field crops of wheat, rye, pea, and the mushroom Kuehneromyces mutabilis were established on a set of metalliferous uranium mine soils and alluvial sands. Mineral concentrations in mature plan...

The global demand for strategic mineral resources has surged because of technological developments, with the associated resource security (SMRS) issues attracting significant research attention, especially in China. To fully understand this direction, 3722 studies were extracted from Web Science (WoS) and China's National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). knowledge was mapped bibliographic recor...

Abstract: Fluorite is an important strategic mineral. In general, fluorite ores will contain a certain amount of calcite gangue mineral. Thus, they need to be separated from each other. For an economic separation, a reverse flotation process is used to float calcite gangue from fluorite. However, little information on the separation is available. In this study, a novel reagent schedule using ci...

Metarril SP Organic is a product based on the fungus Metarhizium anisopliae, which was developed for controlling agricultural pests. The present study evaluated the effect of Metarril SP Organic plus 10% mineral oil, for controlling Rhipicephalus microplus under field conditions. Three groups were formed: Control group, which received no treatment; Oil control group, which was bathed only with ...

The application of chemistry to the technological requirements of the mineral industry is attended by problems of communication, isolation and application. Examples of research related to mineral exploration, underground fires, and the treatment of refractory ores suggest that the effective mineral chemist must learn the language of geology, metallurgy and engineering; that he must extend his s...

Recently, prices of strategic minerals and rare earth elements have been rising dramatically due to global supply shortages and increasing demands. These metals are integral components of advanced technologies, such as, cell-phones, wind turbines, permanent magnets, and semi-conductors. The relative scarcity of these valuable elements has prompted many companies to search for new mineral source...

The dynamics of the legal politics regulating mineral and coal licensing authorities have undergone significant changes. Initially, authority was given by law to local governments, now this is taken over central government. purpose research find out direction philosophical basis behind amendments Mineral Coal Law its implications for mining authority. benefits obtained from are that some change...
