Pneumoconioses | NIOSH | CDC

The primary pneumoconioses are asbestosis, silicosis, and coal workers' pneumoconiosis (commonly referred to as CWP or black lung). As their names imply, they are caused by inhalation of asbestos fibers, silica dust, and coal mine dust. Typically, these three diseases take many years to develop and be manifested, although in some cases ...

Introduction to Mineral Processing or Beneficiation

1.3 Run-Of-Mine Material and Minerals. Generally, mineral processing begins when an ore is delivered from a mine, to a processing facility. At this point, the ore is called run-of-mine material because there has been no treatment performed on it. There are three primary types of run-of-mine materials: Run-of-mine consisting of useful materials.

Underground Mining Methods - UFRGS

The mine operating on a narrow margin must be prepared to survive periods of depressed metal prices. One tactic to deal with such a situation is to adjust the bound- aries of the area being mined and draw these boundaries at a higher cut-off grade. This will increase the value of the run-of-mine product, and the mine will maintain its profit.
