New Mining Concept for Extracting Metals from Deep Ore Deposits using Biotechnology (BioMOre)
Start date: Feb 1, 2015, End date: Jan 31, 2018,
...ss of the deposit from surface.The first phase should cover the intended work of the current BioMOre approach without drilling from surface.The BioMOre project aims at extracting metals from deep mineralized zones in Europe (Poland-Germany, Kupferschiefer deposit as a test case) by coupling solution mining and bioleaching. Selected sustainability indicators based on regulatory requirements of the ...

Innovative Technologies and Concepts for the Intelligent Deep Mine of the Future (I²Mine)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2016,
The mine of the future will exploit mineral raw materials at greater depths than today, requiring completely different approaches compared to today’s deep mines, in order to get mineral rights. Only these eco-efficient mines will contribute to improved access to domestic mineral resources, secure the supply of mineral raw materials for Europe and reduce the import dependency.IntelliMine will contr ...

SELECTIVE AND SUSTAINABLE EXPLOITATION OF ORNAMENTAL STONES BASED ON DEMAND (SUSTAMINING)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
SUSTAMINING project marks the start of a series of development activities aiming to realise the concept of an invisible, zero-impact mine. The natural stone extractive sector, still seen as being old-fashioned and highly environment polluting, will join forces to revise this image showing that natural stone extraction can be approached with a cutting edge methodology with low impact underground an ...

Develop of a new and highly effective modeling and monitoring Energy Management System technique in order to improve Energy Efficiency and move to a low CO2 emission in the energy intensive non-metal (EE-QUARRY)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2014,
The EE-QUARRY project emerges from the necessity to control a very demanding energy-intensive industry, which characterizes from its high energy demands and enormous CO2 emissions. The goal is to improve energy efficiency and to reduce CO2 on quarries, through the develop of a new and highly effective modeling and monitoring Energy Management System technique. The use of crushed stone could increa ...

Earth Observation for Monitoring and Observing Environmental and Societal Impacts of Mineral Resources Exploration and Exploitation (EO-MINERS)
Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2013,
European Commission Vice President Günter Verheugen, responsible for enterprise and industry policy declared "European industries need predictability in the flow of raw materials and stable prices to remain competitive. We are committed to improve the conditions of access to raw materials, be it within Europe or by creating a level playing field in accessing such materials from abroad.” The global ...
