Profit From Mining Commodities

Mega Capital Indonesia (MCI) in Commodity Outlook disclosed that mining commodities show a rising graphic. Coal, for instance, booked a 39% increase in price in 2010 and the price of the commodity is predicted to increase by 16% to US$115 per metric ton in 2011 from US$98.97 per metric ton previously. 

This year, the company targets income to increase by 63% to US$2.9 trillion from the income in 2010. In the meantime, the net profit is predicted to increase by 88% to US$155.8 billion.

In the meantime, the performance of PT. Hexindo Adi Perkasa, Tbk (HEXA) at the stock exchange remains below the expectations because the distributor of Hitachi and John Deere brands are affected by Tsunami hitting Japan some time ago. However, the recovery of factory in Japan makes the corporate management optimistic that the company may reach the maximal outcome up to late 2011.

Even the company has secured heavy equipment sales contracts worth US$200 million from coal mining companies. The contracts are effective for the fiscal year of April 2011 – March 2012. The company obtains order to supply around 100 units of heavy equipment with the selling price around US$2 million per unit. This year, the sales are expected to increase by 30% t0 3,000 units.

In line with the rising sales, the corporate income is predicted to reach US$500 – US$600 million with the net profit around US$ 50 million. The company has not revised the selling target this year because recovery in Japan is faster than the prediction.

Impact of Mercury on Environment and Health

Studies show that small-scale gold mining has been proven to produce mercury affecting environment and health because most of the mercury used in smallholder mining would be released directly to the environment. At the beginning, mercury waste would pollute atmosphere, soil and local water flow, which in due time will endanger health of miners and surrounding communities.

Pursuant to Journal Science of the Total Environment Vol. 408 (2010: 713–725), based on study in Talelu (North Sulawesi) and Kerang Pangi (Central Kalimantan), some 17% of the creature population in Talelu is infected by mercury toxin. In Kerang Pang, the percentage is 32%. In addition, some 24% of the miners in Talelu and 43% of the miners in Kerang Pangi has been infected by mercury. In the meantime, some 55% of miners working directly in smelter amalgam in Sulawesi, and 62% of the workers in Kalimantan has been proven infected by mercury.

Following blood, urine and hair diagnosis, the disease generally suffered by the infected people is brain failure, such as ataxia, tremor, and movement disorders. Moreover, related to impact of mercury on the environment around smallholder mining, Yuyun said that the content of mercury in air in Poboya has reached the maximum limit. “Mining site Poboya is on a hill and the content of mercury in the air is 20-40,000 nano gram/mᵌ. However, the average content is only 5.000 nano gram/mᵌ. It has reached the maximum limit and surrounding people should have been evacuated,” said Yuyun.

For information, the tolerable standard of mercury content is 400 nano gram/m3 in Japan and 1,000 nano gram/m3 in the United States (US Environmental Protection Agency). If the content of mercury in air reached 1,000 – 10,000 nano gram/m3, the granted instruction is preparing for evacuation. Evacuation is a must if the content exceeded 10,000 nano gram/m3.
In the meantime, related to impact of mercury on health, Yuyun said that the impact is categorized as the worst if it has affected babies and children because it is potential to downgrade intellectuality. She frequently found a fact in areas around smallholder mining in Palu that miners suffered from serious skin disease allegedly attributed to mercury.

“We frequently receive information that miners suffered from injuries in their skin. Even though the cause has not been examined clinically, we may associate the disease is attributed to mercury,” said Yuyun, adding that her side has not examined clinically impact of mercury on health of people living around smallholder mining.

“Indeed, we have not conducted clinical test but in view of the existing incidents and reflecting from the previous mercury-related issues, it is not wrong if we start socializing the danger of mercury as from now, instead of waiting until one is victimized,”she said.

Based on the realities, Yuyun said that her side has cooperated with parties to overcome mercury issue. The cooperation is realized by, among others, a program called Development of National and Regional Approaches to Environmentally Sound Management of Mercury in Southeast Asia.

Steel

Steel is the name commonly given in metallurgical engineering from an alloy of iron with a variable amount of carbon between 0.1 and 2.1% by weight of composition, but typically these values ​​are between 0, 2% and 0.3%. If the alloy has a higher carbon concentration to 2.0% occur foundries, as opposed to steel, are brittle and it is possible to forge but must be molded. Not to be confused with iron steel, which is a relatively hard and tough metal with atomic diameter (dA) of 2.48 Å, with melting temperature of 1,535 ° C and boiling point 2740 ° C. In turn, carbon is a nonmetal smaller diameter (dA = 1.54 Å), soft and fragile in most of its allotropic forms (except diamond). The diffusion of this element in the crystal structure of the former is achieved by the difference in atomic diameters. 

The steel keeps the features of iron metal in its pure state, but the addition of carbon and other elements both metallic and nonmetallic improves their physical and chemical properties. There are many types of steel depending on the alloying elements or to be present. The definition in the percentage of carbon corresponds to carbon steels, where this is not the only alloying metal, or are there others but in lower concentrations. Other specific compositions are given specific names depending on many variables such as the elements that predominate in their composition (silicon steel), its susceptibility to certain treatments (hardened steel), some feature enhanced (stainless steel) and even depending on its use (structural steel). 

Usually these iron alloys are included under the generic designation of special steels, why here has adopted the definition of common or "carbon" in addition to being the first made and more employees, 1 formed the basis for others. This wide variety of steel was steel Siemens define as "an iron compound and another substance that increases resistance" .2 The two main components of steel are found in abundance in nature, favoring large-scale production. Disponibilidad3 this variety makes it suitable for many uses such as construction machinery, tools, buildings and public works, contributing to the technological development of societies industrializadas.4 Yet there are those who do not use steel (such as aircraft construction) because of its density (7850 kg / m³ density compared to the 2,700 kg / m³ of aluminum, for example) this is problem who do not use steel.

Mining Guide : Learn to Know About Mining

Mining guide : First think is we must Learn about what is mining?Simple answer ; Mining is the process of extracting minerals and various materials from the earth.

Cooper and tin are used to make pipes, cookware,. and.... etc. Mine Valuation ?;is Calculation of quantities of ore and classification of ore in sight.As mines are opened by levels, rises, etc., through the ore, an extension of these workings has the effect of dividing it into "blocks." The obvious procedure in determining tonnages is to calculate the volume and value of each block separately. Prospective value ?is Extension in depth,origin and structural character of the deposit,secondary enrichment,development in neighboring mines;depth of exhaustion. Large scale mining versus small scale mining?1.Large scale mining usually involves a company with many employees. The company mines at one or two large sites and usually stays until the mineral or metal is completely excavated. 2.Small scale mining usually involves a small group of nomadic men. They travel together and look for sites which they think will yield gold or another valuable metal or mineral. Where does mining occur?Mining occurs in many places around the world, including the U.S. In South America, mining is particularly active in the Amazonia region, Guyana, Suriname, and other South American countries. In Central Africa, mining devastated a National Park called Kahuzi-Biega in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). South Africa is also very well known for mining diamonds. Mining also occurs in Indonesia and other S.E. Asian countries. Price of Metals?is recoverable % of the gross assay value or cost of production.Unfortunately for the mining engineer, not only has he to weigh the amount of risk inherent in calculations involved in the mine itself, but also that due to fluctuations in the value of metals.

Most usually widely used of metal ‘Magnesium’

Magnesium is the third most usually widely used of metal, following iron and aluminium. Magnesium derives its the label from magnesite, a magnesium carbonate mineral, and this stone in turn is told to owe its name to magnesite dumps found in Magnesia, a region in the antique Greek region of Thessaly. The British chemist Humphry Davy is said to have manufactured a mixture of magnesium in 1808 by electrolyzing damp magnesium sulfate, utilizing mercury as a cathode.

The 1st victorious industrialized manufacture was begun in Germany in 1886 by Aluminum und Magnesium fabrik Hemelingen, depending on the electrolysis of molten carnallite. Hemelingen later became constituent of the industrial compound IG Farbenindustrie, which, for the duration of the 1920s and ’30s, urbanized a process for manufacturing huge quantities of molten and fundamentally water-free magnesium chloride (now branded as the IG Farben process) as well as the expertise for electrolyzing this merchandise to magnesium metal and chlorine.

Mining and concentrating

Both dolomite and magnesite are hauled out and concerted by conservative methods. Carnallite is hauled out as ore or alienated from other salt amalgams that are brought to the exterior by solution mining. Naturally happening magnesium including brines are determined in large ponds by solar desertion.

Extraction and refining

A physically powerful chemical reagent, magnesium structures steady compounds and responds with oxygen and chlorine in equally the liquid and gaseous status. This means that taking out of the metal from unrefined materials is a force exhaustive procedure requiring nicely tuned technologies. Commercial construction pursues 2 completely dissimilar methods: electrolysis of magnesium chloride or thermal lessening of magnesium oxide. Where power charges are stumpy, electrolysis is the cheaper means and, undeniably, it accounts for something like 75 percent of world magnesium production.
