Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are proud to present a new Special Edition of Energies, “Mining Technologies Innovative Development-II”, which follows on from our previous Special Edition.
Without a doubt, the events of 2021 indicate the significant potential of the mining sector of the world economy for post-pandemic recovery, due to the key nature of minerals in the development of modern mankind. At the same time, the development of renewable energy and recycling and lean production reinforces volatility in the raw materials market. This creates strong incentives for the innovative development of mining technologies, both for companies and for the scientific centers of the mining sector, making it possible to reduce operating costs and increase profitability and safety. At the same time, the convergence of mining and the digital, cognitive technologies of Industry 4.0 creates a new platform for innovative development—Mining 4.0, which operates on the principles of the "triple" and "quadruple" helix. A crucial role in this platform is played by the innovative cooperation of mining companies and universities, which is impossible without the global dissemination of advanced scientific research. It is to this goal that the Special Issue "Mining Technologies Innovative Development-II" is dedicated.
The success of the innovative development of mining technologies directly depends on the combination of the achievements of fundamental research (rock physics, geophysics, geochemistry, informatics and cognitive sciences) and applied sciences (geo-technology, mining machinery, technosphere safety, etc.), united under the auspices of sustainable development. Therefore, the works of authors publishing original research in the framework of the Special Issue are designed to facilitate the transition of the mining industry to the number of dynamically technologically modernized branches.
In view of the above, we consider the Special Issue of Energies “Mining Technologies Innovative Development-II” a discussion platform for ambitious researchers, maintaining a tradition of publishing high-quality scientific papers. Like the previous one, this Special Issue covers original research in the field of geo-technology and geo-ecology, mineral processing, mining equipment, replacement of natural materials with artificial ones, production of alternative energy and sustainable development of clusters for the extraction of raw materials.
We invite you to submit your original papers to this Special Issue, and look forward to receiving your outstanding research.
