Abstract. The electrochemical study of sulfide minerals has emerged as a vital area for enhancing sustainable methods for extraction and recovery of metals. This field encompasses diverse investigations. The use of Mineral Carbon Paste Electrodes (CPE) is one of the strategies developed in México, and their application for analyzing systems of extractive metallurgy range from analyses of bacterial-mineral interactions to key studies that have delved into understanding mineral dissolution mechanisms, with a particular focus on minerals such as galena, sphalerite, copper sulfides, and silver min

Partes convencionais e não convencionais de abóbora, brócolis, cenoura e couve-flor foram submetidas a quatro tipos de tratamentos térmicos (imersão, vapor, e micro-ondas). Avaliou-se os teores de minerais (Fe, Zn, Mg, K, P e Ca). As análises foram realizadas na hortaliça fresca e após cozimento pelos diferentes métodos em estudo.

The presence of atrazine, along with its degradation products, in soils and water supplies therefore raises concern. Atrazine biodegradation in soils is well-covered to date, however, atrazine degradation by abiotic mineral surfaces, and the chemical mechanism by which it occurs, is not fully understood.

Simulation and validation responses of linear estimated models, which captured the dynamic of the process, are presented.

Abstract Many semiconducting minerals have sufficient conductivity to permit electrochemical reactions on their surfaces. Consequently, galvanic interactions will occur when such minerals are coupled to metals or other conducting minerals. Accelerated galvanic corrosion of metals coupled to noble minerals is quite likely, because most minerals exhibit potentials in solution which are noble to the corrosion potentials of metal alloys. Anodic and cathodic polarization diagrams can be used to predict the galvanic corrosion rates to be expected from any given galvanic couple in a particular corros

Abstract:
As part of the Geo-mapping for Energy and Minerals (GEM) program between 2008 and 2020, the Geological Survey of Canada carried out reconnaissance-scale to deposit-scale geochemical and indicator mineral surveys and case studies across northern Canada. In these studies, geochemical methods were used to determine the concentrations of 65 elements in lake sediment, stream sediment, stream water, lake water and till samples across approximately 1,000,000 km2 of northern Canada. State-of the-art indicator methods were used to examine the indicator mineral signatures in regional-scale stream sedime

Abstract:
As a clean energy system begins to be implemented worldwide, the demand for critical minerals is expected to increase dramatically in the coming decades. Thus, demonstrating how mineral collaboration benefits the economy is key to building long-term supply resilience and keeping the global energy transition on track.

Abstract:
With global politics increasingly fractured, states are rushing to secure critical and strategic mineral supply chains. Each state conceptualizes mineral security differently, driven by a mix of imperatives that range from national development and industrial policy to technological and military dominance. Great power competition pervades all of these issue areas, and that competition may also pose risks at the global level: risks for the pace of green transition, risks of geoeconomic escalation and risks of conflict. This report provides an insightful overview of the mineral security policies
