Special Issue on: "Innovations in Mining and Mineral Processing"
IJMME is an interdisciplinary and refereed journal, a think tank that fosters innovative solutions to design efficient mining systems and mineral processing plants. It promotes feasible system design, development, and management, bringing together sustainable technologies, the people, and sound processes. It provides cross learning between various scientific and technological, as well as business and economics, disciplines comprising exploration, drilling, blasting, extraction, and processing, taking into account environment, health and safety, and public concerns.
Objectives
The objective IJMME is to provide an international forum for academics, industry leaders, and policy makers to investigate and exchange novel ideas and disseminate knowledge and information covering the broad range of industrial activities and fields including, but not limited to, mining science and engineering, mineral processing, earth sciences, economics, engineering, information technologies, management, medicine, and arts. In addition, it aims to establish an effective channel of communication between policy makers, government agencies, academic and research institutions and persons concerned with the complex set and behaviour of mining and mineral processing systems and operations. It also aims to promote and coordinate developments in the fields of mining and mineral processing. The international dimension is emphasised in order to overcome cultural and national barriers and to meet the needs of accelerating technological and ecological advances in the mineral industry and the global society and economy. The ultimate objective is to ensure healthy mining and mineral processing, and society progress and evolution.
Readership
IJMME provides a vehicle to help professionals, academics, researchers and policy makers, working in the fields of mining and mineral processing dealing with exploration, mining, mineral processing, technology management, production engineering, mineral economics, and health and safety, to disseminate information and to learn from each other's work.
Contents
IJMME publishes original papers, review papers, technical reports, case studies, conference reports, management reports, book reviews, notes, commentaries, and news. Special Issues devoted to important topics in Mining and Mineral Processing will occasionally be published.
Subject Coverage
Suitable topics include, but are not limited to:
Geology
Exploration
Drilling and blasting engineering
Mining
Mineral processing
Process control
Resources optimisation
Artificial intelligence and knowledge based systems
Mine Information technologies
Mine mechanisation, automation, and robotics
