Could crushed rocks absorb enough carbon to curb global warming? A little-examined form of geoengineering takes what rocks normally do—lock up carbon—and spreads it through the oceans.

Gravel and crushed gravel and hard rock aggregates always contain a proportion of fines, and if the material is dry, a fairly heavy dust cloud can be raised when it is mobilized. The resulting dust can disturb both the population and the local environment.

Ecological Impact:About 40 million tons of waste rock and 30 million tons of tailings—a fine sand—are dis-charged annually into local rivers. Impacts on rivers and rain forest will last for decades. Economic Impact:The mine is the single largest contributor to Papua New Guinea’s economy, accounting for about 10 percent of GDP. In 2001,

The angle of internal friction of a crushed stone will be directly influenced by type of rock and grain size. Forty-one (41) seems to me possible, but dangerous. I would use a safe 36 degrees unless a direct shear test is performed on a sample. There''s at-rest earth pressure and active earth pressure.

The combination of the crushed rock and the waste rock from the copper mines have been used to build and create embankments or even pavement bases for highways. The production of copper has to undergo an extensive environmental regulation dealing with water and air quality which affects the cost of domestic copper production.

Construction has been the largest documented consumer of materials in the United States by weight for almost a century. Crushed stone, sand, and gravel use (primarily in road base, cement concrete, and asphalt concrete) have grown significantly from ∼33% in 1900 to 70% to 73% of all materials used in 1998 ( 6 ).

Natural aggregate (crushed stone, sand, and gravel) is a vital part of our economic infrastructure in Minnesota. Aggregate is used for road and bridge construction and in a variety of building materials. In 2003, the value of construction sand and gravel and crushed stone in Minnesota was approximately $245,000,000.

Environmental impacts of mining largely depend on the methods used and the geological context that governs how easily the minerals can be separated from the ore material. Unlike gold mining, which often uses potentially toxic chemicals such as mercury and cyanide, gemstone mining does not depend on chemicals for extraction of the rough material.

Predicting mine waste environmental impacts before it’s too late. Mining for precious, base and ferrous metals can result in millions of tonnes of tailings and waste rock, which if left unmanaged can have dire environmental consequences. Poorly designed storage facilities can potentially leak pollution for centuries or even millennia.
