Abstract:

The developed countries’ institutional research undertaken on corporate social responsibilities (CSR) have shown a positive relationship between accessibility of financial related assets and CSR. Contentions that we classified as the Institutional Difference Hypothesis (IDH) drawn from the institutional writing, on the other hand, propose that institutional contrasts amid of developing and the developed economies are prone to result in diverse CSR propositions. Incorporating the rationale of IDH with understanding of knowledge from slack resource theory, we contend that there exists a negative relationship between fiscal resources accessibility and CSR investments for mining companies in Ghana, a sub-Saharan African developing economy. We utilize a well-protected data from the Ghana Investment Promotion Center (GIPC), Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) and Ghana Chamber of mines (GCM) and find that Return on Ordinary Share, Return on Sales, and Net Profit were reliably connected with lower CSR disbursements. We highlight the ramifications of our discoveries for academics’ examination and corporate practitioners.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine the degree, contents and trend development of Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) performance indicators disclosed in sustainability reports of large mining companies in Ghana. Design/methodology/approach Content analysis methods are used to analyse 50 sustainability reports of ten large-scale mining companies in Ghana, covering the period 2008-2012. Findings The study finds that there has been a widening and increasing trend in the disclosure of performance indicators in sustainability reports of the large mining companies in Ghana, in accordance with GRI guidelines. The findings suggest that good progress in the strategic sector has been made in the voluntary adoption of the GRI guidelines to increase transparency, credibility and comparability in sustainability reporting. The findings also indicate areas to be improved. Practical implications The Government of Ghana and the Ghana Chamber of Mines could learn from the findings about the current status of this matter in order for them to formulate policies and regulations which would encourage the mining sector in moving forward in the adoption of international reporting standards. Originality/value This paper initializes investigation into the degree, contents and trends of performance indicators in sustainability reports of large mining companies in Ghana using content analysis.

Abstract:

Authors analyzed of ecological hydrogeological conditions of coal mine Yuncom underground nuclear blast chamber flooding and possible risk of the ground and surface water contamination.An analysis of the compatible graphs of semi-logarithmic dependences lg S0/St) of the time observation of the levels rise in the mines of the NTGS according to the analytical model that was developed on the example of flooding of the Stakhanov group of mines indicates their hydrodynamic analogy and the possibility of separation of three principal phases of the hydraulically-filtration process of the Donbas mines flooding:1 ) initial accelerated rise of the level is mainly connected with decrease in volume of the peripheral part of the depression due to reduced volume of mining operations and the prevailing movement of underground flow in its deep permeable part; time extension up to 3–4 months;2) predominance in the lithologic composition of coal-bearing rocks of the weakly permeable sandy-clay rocks (up to 70–80 % of total capacity) with increased sorption capacity increases the waterproofing capacity of the rock mass in conditions of further deformation and its full water saturation during flooding of the mine.3) For the zone of the “Klivazh” object influence is characterized by the limitation (in the current conditions of incomplete water saturation) migration of radioactive explosion products due to their predominant concentration in the difficult soluble formations of the explosive chamber and the influence of coal-bearing, weakly permeable rocks sorption.Main hazards of these processes are connected with stohastic parameters of mine water movement and dangerous toxic contaminants migration into fresh water aquifers (zone of active water exchange) and surface water objects.Modern system of ground water movement during regional coal mines flooding within Central Donbas has a complex hydraulic-filtration structure that is why this situation demands of the new calculative models elaboration.

Abstract:

The charm of maritime delimitation and its enigmatic lessons hardly surprise us, yet the reasoning behind them sometimes seems seductively elusive. On September 23, 2017, a Special Chamber of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) issued its decision in Ghana v. Ivory Coast. The glamour of maritime delimitation is reason enough to note the judgment, but the case also addresses the equidistance principle for maritime delimitation, the standard for the acceptance of a tacit agreement, and international responsibility under Article 83 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).

Abstract:

Background: Our knowledge of skin disease is often based on fortuitous situations that have provided opportunities for observation and study of the disease. One of these diseases is sporotrichosis. Objective: This article examines a symposium published in 1947 by the Transvaal Chamber of Mines in South Africa. It reviews the approach taken in the investigation of a large outbreak of sporotrichosis in the mine workers. Conclusion: The investigation of this outbreak has contributed significantly to our present day knowledge of sporotrichosis, the causative organism, its mode of spread, and its clinical features. It is also a striking example of meticulous scientific research and observation.

Abstract:

Purpose – The aim of this paper is to set a baseline understanding of the corporate social responsibility (CSR) concept amongst the different stakeholders in the mining industry in Ghana and further examine their appreciation of issues of occupational health and safety. It explored the integration of issues of health and safety of employees into the broader CSR agenda through a stakeholder analysis. Design/methodology/approach – The study population comprised various stakeholders operating in the mining industry of Ghana. The purposive sampling technique was used in the selection of the organisations/institutions that participated in the study. In all, 35 people were interviewed, and the interview data were analysed using thematic-content analysis. Findings – The findings provide an insight into how the various stakeholders in the mining industry in Ghana understood the CSR concept and how they went about practising it. Appreciation of issues health and safety by the various stakeholders also received considerable attention. All the stakeholders equated CSR to community relations. In all the cases, respondents referred to the local community as their focal point when discussing the concept. Originality/value – On the basis of this paper, it appears that mining companies in Ghana have looked upon the concept as a strategic challenge and not as a series of high-profile initiatives aimed at ensuring a responsible business practice. This paper adds to the literature by providing a perspective on how CSR associates with health and safety.

Abstract:

Movable mine refuge chamber is widely used in coal mines for protecting miners from coalmine accident. During a coalmine accident, there will be large heat impact load and stress on the movable mine refuge chamber caused by high temperature and high pressure. Therefore the strength of the movable mine refuge chamber should be carefully designed to meet the safety requirement with the possible lightest weight. Based on analysis of the structure dimensions, material properties, and operating conditions, a finite element model is developed with an emphasis on the effect of the layout and sizes of stiffeners and structural form of the chamber. A comparison of different design schemes is made and the calculation result is given. This work could be helpful for optimization design of China’s movable mine refuge chamber.

Abstract:

Longwall salvage activities at JSC SUEK-Kuzbass underground coal mines may experience unforeseen delays. To determine the causes of the delays in the salvage activities, we have considered various factors. Firstly, we have analyzed the effect of the longwall face width on the duration of salvage activities. We have proved that this factor does not have a statistically significant effect on the duration of salvage activities. We have established that the duration of the salvage activities is determined by the location of the salvage chambers relative to the pillar and the previously extracted panel. In the event that contiguous previously extracted panel is located near the salvage chamber, the salvage time is doubled on average.
