Mine tailings-based geopolymers: A comprehensive review

 — The mine tailings are inhomogeneous and have a complex mineral, aggregate, and chemical composition [59, [109], [110], [111]].Furthermore, although having relatively low quantities of valuable components, mine tailings contain hazardous and toxic compounds connected with waste products or mining activities [82, 84, [112], [113], …

A Review on Remediation of Iron Ore Mine Tailings via …

 — Mining operations degrade natural ecosystems by generating a large quantity of mine tailings. Mine tailings remain in dams/open ponds without further treatment after valuable metals such as iron ore have been extracted. Therefore, rehabilitation of tailings to mitigate the negative environmental impacts is of the utmost necessity. This review …

Assessment of the use potential of iron ore tailings in the …

 — The iron ore tailings (IOT) used in this work were collected from four Class III high environmental risk iron ore tailings-dams [26]. These (Fig. A.1) were selected based on the associated social and environmental potential risks, as well as economic relevance, as described in the dams inventory of the Minas Gerais State [27]. All four dams are ...

Take two: why mine tailings are worth another look

 — Based in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, Agera receives the sand produced from the treatment of tailings at Vale's iron-ore operations in the state and promotes its commercialisation and distribution. Vale began producing Sustainable Sand in 2021 after seven years of research as a substitute for sand extracted from the environment.

Iron ore beneficiation: an overview

 — Dry processing of iron ore: In dry processing of iron ore, ROM is generally crushed below 40 mm through three-stage crushing and thus segregated by screening into 10–40 and −10 mm fractions. For softer ore, tumbler index is generally low and hence lump ore is crushed below 10 mm to produce fine product. Yield from the plants has …

Ecological rehabilitation of mine tailings | Plant and Soil

 — However, after early ecological engineering of mine tailings, Li et al. found the legume Acacia auriculiformis could grow better in iron ore tailings eco-engineered with exogenous OM and pioneer plant colonisation. Furthermore, this legume formed nodules and promoted N 2 fixation in eco-engineered iron ore tailings. Compared with plants ...

CHAPTER II

Mine tailings are the waste material that remains after the economic fraction has been extracted from the mineral ore. Tailings consist of a slurry of ground rock, and water and chemical reagents that remain after processing. The composition of mine tailings varies according to the mineralogy of the ore deposit and how the ore is processed.

Recycling and Reuse of Mine Tailings: A Review of …

 — Mining is an important industry, accounting for 6.9% of global GDP. However, global development promotes accelerated demand, resulting in the accumulation of hazardous waste in land, sea, and air environments. It reached 7 billion tonnes of mine tailings generated yearly worldwide, and 19 billion solid tailings will be accumulated by …

Utilization of iron ore tailings with high volume in green …

 — Iron ore tailings (IOTs) are a byproduct of the iron ore beneficiation process and are a significant source of solid waste [13, 14].In China alone, an astounding 600 million tons of IOTs are produced annually, yet the utilization rate remains shockingly low at only 7% [14].The high demand for iron production has led to an increased disposal of …
