  1. 1. Gamification for technology-enhanced mineral value chain teaching and learning: serious gaming for geometallurgy concept

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Lilian Schleret; [2024]
    Keywords : Gamification; Malmberget; Geometallurgy; Synthetic model;

    Abstract : The concept of gamification is being increasingly explored and applied to offer new teaching or training tools to teachers, students or employees. The field of geology and geometallurgy wasn’t particularly discussed in the topic of gamification. READ MORE

  2. 2. Investigating the potential of systematic optical petrography in a geometallurgical context : A case study on boulder characterization from Rajapalot property, Finland

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Annie Björk; [2023]
    Keywords : Petrography; optical microscopy; scanning electron microscopy; geometallurgy; mining value chain; Peräpohja belt;

    Abstract : Geometallurgy describes a holistic approach to mining (integrating geological, metallurgical, geotechnical, environmental, and more parameters) with the goal to improve the efficiency and sustainability of a mining operation. The potential of systematic optical petrography in a geometallurgical context was investigated in this study, as well as how petrography may be useful across disciplines in several blocks of the mining value chain.

  3. 3. Outlook of EV battery pack design trends : Assessment of trend impact from a recycling perspective

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Arvid Johannisson; [2023]
    Keywords : Electric vehicle; Battery pack design trends; Battery pack disassembly; Recyclability; Circular economy; Elfordon; Batteri-pack-design-trender; Batteri-pack-demontering; Återvinningsbarhet; Cirkulär ekonomi;

    Abstract : Electrification is essential to decarbonise the transport sector, which accounts for the highest share of greenhouse gas emissions by all sectors. The transition requires a large amount of batteries which bring challenges, not least when it comes to raw material supply and sustainability issues during the mineral mining. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Dark Side of Mineral Sourcing : The Responsible Sourcing Practices of Industrial Manufacturing Firms

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Handelshögskolan (from 2013)

    Author : Ajnur Mujanovic; Erik Österberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Responsible sourcing; supply chain due diligence; supply chain visibility; traceability; supply chain management; Digital Twin; Etiskt inköp; supply chain due diligence; supply chain visibility; spårbarhet; supply chain management; Digital Twin;

    Abstract : In order to succeed with the Sustainable Development Goals, the mining of minerals will need to not only continue, but increase in the coming years. The extraction of minerals such as gold and cobalt is often associated with human rights violations and the financing of criminal enterprises. READ MORE

  5. 5. Orchestrating Industry Transition: A case study of value chain collaboration strategies to enable urban mining in the Danish building industry

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Author : Mathias Peitersen; [2022]
    Keywords : Urban Mining UM ; Circular Construction; Circular Business Model Innovation CBMI ; Value Chain Collaboration; Supply Chain Partnerships; Transition Management Theory.; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : Production of building materials is connected to a great deal of environmental degradation, and demand for materials is expected to increase. Currently, the construction industry is responsible for 23 % of the global GHG emissions, 40 % of the raw materials consumed globally, and 32 % of the waste generated in Europe. READ MORE
