The ratio of waste rock/ore is called stripping ratio. For example, a stripping ratio of 2:1 means that 2 tonnes of waste rock needs to be removed to mine 1 tonne of ore. Generally, an open pit mine has a higher stripping ratio than an underground mine. Waste rock is often deposited in piles or heaps close to the mine to minimize transports. As ...
Mining produces a lot of waste which should be disposed of properly. Improper waste disposal leads to soil, water and air pollution. There are various types of mining. They include coal mining, metal, landfill mining, oil and gas extraction and non-metal ore mining. This means there are also different types of mining waste. These include: … Continue reading …
From 2013 to 2022: The TRI waste managed by the metal mining sector consists mostly of metals.
