Quantifying the flows of ore and waste through the mining and mineral processing stages of a project using simulation has evolved and improved in quality in recent years (Reuter, 1998; Abadías Llamas et al., 2019). A common tool that is used to plan and optimise mineral processing is mineral process simulation software.

The review not only considered the potential impacts on the local environment and community of mining and mineral processing sites but also extended to the extraction and manufacturing stages of the supply chain related to the technology or services that the decarbonization action requires.
Under this understanding, resource extraction policies can be handled through the effective implementation of environmental laws. The ecological policy stringency is an indispensable determinant in driving economic growth. Fig. 3 elaborates on the trends of environmental policy stringency in the OECD countries. The implementation of the ...

Environmental Impact of Mining and Mineral Processing: Management, Monitoring, and Auditing Strategies covers all the aspects related to mining and the environment, including environmental assessment at the early planning stages, environmental management during mine operation, and the identification of major impacts. Technologies for the treatment of mining, mineral …
In this regard, the design of a mineral processing plant cannot be viewed strictly in terms of the efficiency of the equipment but as the development of systems that can evolve to meet the changing needs of the industry while at the same time minimising the amount of waste produced and the impact on the environment.
That, in combination with high environmental standards, can allow more nickel to reach North American battery and EV producers without necessarily harming the development of domestic production and processing capacity, especially if the US government steps up its industrial policy in support of domestic production.
