Hence minerals other than fossils e.g. metals could be modelled without an ore grade decrease function something that in any case has been heavily criticised by authoritative bodies.

The study was based on production data from an open pit mine located in the Iron QuadrangleBrazil. The functional unit was defined as one tonne of iron ore concentrate produced and the data used were collected directly from the companys production reports .
Read MoreEnvironmental geochemistry is an integral part of the mine-life cycle particularly for modern mining. The critical importance of environmental geochemistry begins with pre-mining baseline characterization and the assessment of environmental risks related to mining continues through active mining especially in water and waste management practices and culminates in mine closure.
