Mining – Open Pit – Reference Material

  • Pits & Quarries 

    This review will first define the difference between open pit mines and quarries. It will then cover the details on open pit mining methods, design aspects, and gives an example of an open pit mine. In the latter half, quarrying is covered with more focus on the sequence of mining in a quarry. Its characteristics, mining machinery involved, and publications are also mentioned. Finally, a few more topics are covered which include computer codes, laws, and codes of practice. Publications, organizations, and a list of companies supplying to the quarrying industry are also given.

 

The business case for 5G fixed wireless access.

5G fixed wireless access business case

Alphabet subsidiary Google Fiber, part of one of the largest, most lucrative, well-funded, technologically advanced companies in human history, had grand plans for deploying fiber-to-the-home and offering consumers gigabit per second broadband as well as a television offering when it started in 2010. After an ambitious expansion plan gave way to very slow deployment and activations in early markets, the company scaled back and put a pause on new market entries to regroup.

Technological upheaval is threatening to upend Ontario’s electricity sector faster than the government can revamp it.  As the price of rooftop solar panels plummets and large-scale batteries become affordable for the first time, a future where Ontarians produce their own power and cut the cord to the wider grid appears to be approaching.

I write this as a follow up from Huawei’s position paper released earlier this month.  I first saw this from a good article from Zenobia Hegde.    The presented classification of spectrum and approach is natural and logical since it follows laws of physics and technology capabilities.   Here are some comments supporting the position and how some vendors are positioned for industrial LTE.
