Harnessing the Power of Partnerships

During mid-May, Sam Walsh, CEO, Rio Tinto, spoke at Infrastructure Week in Washington, D.C. The weeklong event discussed solutions, approaches and best practices being developed nationwide to modernize the aging infrastructure in the U.S. Walsh was the keynote speaker at a forum hosted by the International Finance Corp. (IFC), where he discussed the power of innovative partnerships in building infrastructure projects that create growth. "Big infrastructure investments in transportation, power, energy, communications and water are daunting," Walsh said. "They are difficult to achieve in the U.S. and they are even harder in the developing world. Aid alone can’t eradicate extreme poverty; broad-based economic growth is its only certain end. To achieve that, we must invest in infrastructure that facilitates trade and commerce."
As a global business leader with operations in both the developed and developing world, Walsh ......... read more

Equipment Selection is Key for Productivity in Underground Loading and Haulage
Making all the right choices can significantly reduce cost per ton, increase worker safety and minimize required maintenance

By Russell A. Carter, Managing Editor

By nature of the work environment, mechanized underground mining can’t offer the big-picture visibility of large-scale truck and shovel surface operations, and the open space needed for typical multi-truck loading patterns just isn’t available underground. However, the basic elements of surface-fleet equipment selection—such as appropriate size for site conditions, correct pass-matching between loaders and trucks, and proper machine configuration for optimal safety, reliability and maintenance—are valid and perhaps even more critical in underground operations, where fleet and individual equipment size and capacities are often constrained by work space limitations……. read more

Media Selection and Installation — The Fast Track to Screening Success
The correct choice of media can be critical to the effectiveness of screening. Wire, rubber and polyurethane are all contenders, while suppliers have been focusing on making screen-panel maintenance simpler and quicker

By Simon Walker, European Editor

Last month we looked at some of the major suppliers of screens and screen media, with specialties ranging from dewatering in coal washeries to aggregate production, scalping and trash capture in carbon-in-leach (CIP) plants. Operators clearly have a large number of choices, with some manufacturers offering packages of both the screen hardware and the media to go with it, while others specialize in the development of media that can be fitted to other companies’ screens. As a follow-up to that, we asked a number of industry experts for their views on developments that have taken place in screen media over the past five to 10 years. The questions covered topics such as the materials now available for different applications, the design of screen media, and problems that they commonly encounter in connection with the incorrect use of media on screening plants…... read more

Three Steps to Improving Mine Performance
Combining elements from performance improvement programs while focusing on the people side of the equation proves successful for some underground operations

By Steve Fiscor, Editor-in-Chief

Many underground miners view their operations as rock factories. Their task, in its simplest form, is to supply the mill with more rock than it can process. Until the mine consistently supplies rock at the level required for the plant to run at full capacity, the mine will be viewed as the weak link in the production chain.
Underground mining processes can be complex, especially when one considers the relationship between development and production. Add to that other variables such as shaft scheduling, delivery of materials, drilling and blasting schedules, mucking, the movement of men and machinery, etc., and the interdependency of related tasks further complicates the situation..... read more

DTH Hammers are Compact, Lighter and More Durable
Boart Longyear has introduced its BLH series of down-the-hole (DTH) hammers and bits for almost all DTH applications, including geotechnical drilling, quarrying/ mining, water well/geothermal, and mineral exploration. The BLH DTH hammer range includes the valved BLH5, BLH3, and the valve-less BLH1 models. Designed to be compact, the BLH5 hammer is 30% shorter and weighs 20% less than typical DTH hammers, according to the company. Design benefits include balanced operation with minimized vibration due to the piston in the hammer having virtually the same mass as the bit; better productivity in various ground conditions from high frequency …. read more
