Use of Technogenic Raw Materials of the Mining Plants of Murmansk Region for Manufacturing Glass and Glassy-Crystalline Materials

Review of global trends in meeting the ecological challenges of the mining industry. Part II: Field tests and lab-scale analytical research in Russia

“…In mining regions in Russia, ecologists pay close attention to usability of mineral mining and processing waste placed in dumps and tailings ponds. Applied science offers the ways of using mining and processing waste in the national economy, including waste of open pit mining of kimberlite pipes in the Arkhangelsk Region, processing tailings of complex ore mining in the Murmansk Region, as well as marble and tungsten-molybdenum ore mining and processing [9][10][11][12][13].…”
