The term mine waste implies that the material has no current economic value and is an unwanted by-product of mining. However, some mine wastes can be useful and this has been recognized since the beginning of mining and smelting . For example, the use of slag in road construction can be traced back to the very early days when the …
Studies on coal mining by-products have been conducted with materials from different origins, such as landfills (10)(11)(12), collected directly from washing plants (13) or coal sludge wastes (10,14).

The situation of coal mining wastes disposal at Yanzhou coal mining area The total raw coal production produced by Yanzhou Coal Mining Company from 1977 to 2005 is 461.58 million tons.
Mining and processing wastes comprise the largest group of industrial wastes generated and deposited in Poland. Among these, wastes from hard coal mining and processing traditionally constitute the most important group, currently generated at a level of 29-33 million Mg per year, with approx. 85% being utilised. Hard coal wastes …
AMD solution obtained from another local coal mine was percolated over the coal samples packed in 1 m and 6 m columns, until the pH of the accumulated drainage solution measured approximately pH 7.
This paper consists of the evaluation in regards to the ecotoxicological effectiveness of a treatment applied to a coal mining waste. The treatment consisted of separating the particles based on gravimetric concentration in spirals, generating three fractions: heavy, intermediate, and light, with high, moderate, and low pyrite content, …
This chapter focuses on the coal mining waste situation globally and describes efforts to reuse coal mining waste and recover lost coal. Case studies on a …
Surface/open cast mining and deep underground mining are considered two basic methods for coal extraction globally. The rising trend of coal mining activities has resulted in the accumulation of mining and processing wastes with low carbon levels over the past few decades [6]. Fig. 1 presents different life cycle stages of coal with details of …
37 coal mining wastes have been viewed as problematic geomaterials. They are chemically Journal of Cleaner Production, Submitted Oct 2021; Published Dec 2021.
Mineral waste can be defined as a material leftover from exploration, mining and quarrying operation that cannot find a productive use. It is the high-volume material that originates from the excavation and physical and chemical processing of a wide range of metalliferous and non-metalliferous minerals by opencast and deep shaft methods [].The …
Mine wastes are unwanted, currently uneconomic, solid and liquid materials found at or near mine sites. Mining waste originates from the processes of excavation, dressing and further physical and chemical processing of wide range of metalliferous and non-metalliferous minerals by opencast and deep shaft methods.
Improperly managed waste can leach contaminants into nearby water bodies, affecting aquatic life and potentially entering the food chain. The environmental impact of coal …
Waste from coal mining is managed, however only in 44%. Among the waste related to coal mining and processing, the following types of waste are distinguished: …
