Economic Evaluation and Risk Analysis of Mineral Projects: Proceedings of the International Mining Forum 2008 Cracow - Szczyrk - Wieliczka, Poland, February 2008

by Jerzy Kicki (Editor), Eugeniusz J. Sobczyk (Editor)

Overview

The International Mining Forum is a recurring event, hosted by the University of Science and Technology in Cracow, Poland, bringing together an international group of scientists, including those working in rock mechanics and computer engineering as well as mining engineers. The topics are wide-ranging, including papers on remote sensing to assess primary impact; treatment of sealed-off coal mine fires; sustainable development in mine closure; and monitoring of natural hazards and safety issues.
