3-dimensional modeling methods have been used in the every step of resource development; Exploration, reserve estimation, mine feasibility study, mine design and mine production. This report shows seven cases for which 3-dimensional modeling is used in resource development. Six projects deal with resource esimation, mine feasibility study and production. And another deals with mine rehabilitation. These cases show that 3-dimensional modeling method is beneficial to understand the real state of ore deposit and complex underground structures. Moreover, 3-dimensional modeling is the most efficient method for mine planning and management in the every step of resource development.

This study assessed the feasibility of coal mine drainage sludge (CMDS) as a stabilizing agent for mercury contaminated soil through pot experiments and batch tests. In the pot experiments with 43 days of lettuce growth, the bioavailability of mercury in the amended soil and mercury content of the lettuce were decreased by 46% and 50%, respectively. These results were similar to those of the soil amended with the sulfide compound (FeS) generally used for mercury stabilization. Thus, CMDS could be an attractive mercury stabilizer in terms of industrial by-product recycling. Batch tests were conducted to examine mercury fractionation including reactions between the soil and acetic acid. The result showed that some elemental fraction changed to strongly bounded fraction rather than residual (HgS) fraction. This made it possible to conclude that mercury adsorption on oxides in CMDS was the major mechanism of stabilization.

Future Combat System(FCS), such as unmanned systems that reduce the danger faced by soldiers in the field, are likely to be studied and developed. Soldiers when finding and disposing of mines risk injury and death. Several methods of safe mine retrieval are investigated. In this paper, a mine removal method, which uses a remote controlled robot to get rid of mines using a 4 channel architecture teleoperation method is used. The robot, when in contact with soil and mines, is controlled by a remote control. The feasibility of using teleoperation controlled system to remove mines is demonstrated in this paper. The Matlab-Simulink was used as a tool to simulate mine removal with robots. The force and position of the robot{slave system of 4 channel architecture) and controller(master system of 4 channel architecture) are analyzed when users handle the controller with sinusoidal force.

The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of organic compost for reducing soil loss in 25% sloped farm land. For the study, laboratory and field experiment were performed. After nine weeks monitoring in pot test, hardness of the amended soil with organic compost (1%~3%, w/w) showed two times higher than the control soil. Furthermore, soil loss of that was decreased by 95% under rainfall simulation test. From the result of laboratory experiment, organic compost with 2% (w/w) was applied for field experimental plot. After six month from April to September, the amount of soil loss became 67% of the initial, and the growth of natural vegetation was not hampered. Therefore, organic compost can be used as amendment materials to reduce soil loss in sloped farmland.

불포화대 및 포화대에 걸쳐 존재하는 폐석더미의 수리적 특성을 조사하기 위해 물을 주입한 후 수두강하를 측정하는 순간충격시험을 실시하였다. 본 연구지역과 같이 관정이 수리적 특성이 크게 다른 두 지층에 걸쳐 설치된 경우, Bower and Rice해석 방법을 이용하여 두 대수층 각 각의 수리전도도를 산출할 수 있었으며, 하강하는 지하수위의 변곡점을 이용하여 폐석더미의 두께를 추정할 수 있었다. 갈수기 시 관정 내 낮은 지하수위 때문에 인위적인 지하수위를 형성시킨 후 순간충격시험을 실시한 결과, 그 결과는 풍수기 시험 결과와 차이가 크지 않았다. 이와 같은 순간 충격시험은 폐석적치장과 같은 곳의 수리적 특성을 파악할 수 있는 유효한 방법으로 판단된다.

광미의 처리를 위한 heap bioleaching은 유망 기술이나 이 과정을 오랜 기간 수행한 연구는 부족한 상황이다. 본 연구는 약 436일 동안의 column bioleaching실험을 통해, 광미에서 고농도 비소의 제거특성을 평가하였다. 높이 350 mm의 플라스틱 column에 750 g의 광미와 A. thiooxidans 및 A. ferrooxidans로 구성된 호산성 박테리아를 접종하여 실험을 진행하였다. 비소제거 효율을 확인하고, 그 관련 기작을 이해하고자 침출액의 산화 환원전위와 pH, 액중 철 이온(ferrous와 ferric)의 생성 및 비소 농도를 측정하였다. 실험 436일 후, 비소의 제거율을 약 70%까지 달성 할 수 있었다. 하지만, 부분적으로 침출율이 감소하는 경향을 확인할 수 있었고, 이는 비소의 독성으로 인한 박테리아 군집의 활성도 저하에 의한 것으로 판단되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 광미의 heap bioleaching 연구를 위한 기초 자료로서 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

To improve the utilization rate of construction waste as mine backfilling materials, this paper investigated the feasibility of using recycled powder as mine paste backfilling cementitious material, and studied the pozzolanic activity of recycled construction waste powder. In this study, alkali-calcium-sulfur served as the activation principle and an orthogonal test plan was performed to analyze the impact of the early strength agent, quick lime, and gypsum on the pozzolanic activity of the recycled powder. Our results indicated that in descending order, early strength agent > quick lime > gypsum affected the strength of the backfilling paste with recycled powder as a cementitious material during early phases. The strength during late phases was affected by, in descending order, quick lime > gypsum > early strength agent. Using setting time and early compressive strength as an analysis index as well as an extreme difference analysis, it was found that the optimal ratio of recycled powder cementitious material for mine paste backfilling was recycled powder:quick lime:gypsum:early strength agent at 78%:10%:8%:4%. X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscope were used to show that the hydration products of recycled powder cementitious material at the initial stages were mainly CH and ettringite. As hydration time increased, more and more recycled powder was activated. It mainly became calcium silicate hydrate, calcium aluminate hydrate, etc. In summary, recycled powder exhibited potential pozzolanic activities. When activated, it could replace cementitious materials to be used in mine backfill.

Acid mine drainage occurs when sulfide minerals are exposed to an oxidizing environment. The objective of this study was to inhibit the oxidation of pyrite by applying various coating agent such as $KH_2PO_4$, MgO and $KMnO_4$ over its surface as an oxidation inhibitors. Experiments were conducted for 8 days to test the feasibility of oxidation inhibitors. The optimal condition of coating agent for standard pyrite and IK mine was the combination of 0.01M $KH_2PO_4$, 0.01M NaOAc and 0.01M NaClO. Otherwise, for YD mine the combination of 0.01M $KMnO_4$, 0.01M NaOAc and 0.01M NaClO. The $SO_4^{2-}$ reduction efficiency of pyrite, IK and YD mine samples was 70, 92 and 84%, respectively. For 8 days, no significant increase of $SO_4^{2-}$ from pyrite sample coated with inhibitor was observed. The pH of solution remains in between 4 to 6 for the reaction conditions.

In Korea, the common remedial process for reclamation of agricultural soils nearby abandoned mines involves chemical soil stabilization followed by covering with clean soil. This study investigated the chemical properties of cover soils and the validity of HCl extraction method in assessing the degree of As and heavy metal stabilization in stabilized soils collected from 14 plots where mine reclamation had been completed. The results revealed there were no major differences in contaminants extraction rate between the stabilized soils and contaminated soils, suggesting HCl extraction procedure is a less feasible method to determine the efficiency of the stabilization. Soil quality indicators including OM, SiO₂, P₂O₅, etc. of the land-covering soils were generally lower than those of stabilized soils that used to be the cultivation layer before the stabilization. Nonetheless, the value of those indicators didn't meet the regulatry limits of agricultural soil. Therefore, future strategy for mine reclamation should concentrate not only on contaminant concentration but also on soil quality parameters for agricultural use of the reclaimed soil.
