1. Introduction. Small-scale mining has played an increasingly important role for communities that depend on this activity worldwide. Buxton [] estimates that small-scale mining employs 20 to 30 million people in over 80 countries, and that this sector is responsible for 15 to 20% of the global production of minerals and metals.Villegas et al.[] report that small-scale …
Small-scale hydropower is one of the most long term, cost-effective and reliable energy technologies to be considered for providing clean electricity generation. In particular, the key advantages that small hydro has over wind and solar power are: A high conversion efficiency (70 - 90%), by far the best of
Small-scale mining usually operates under high geological uncertainty conditions. This turns mine planning into a complex and sometimes inaccurate task, resulting in low productivity and ...

Small scale mining equipment is available from renown engineers and suppliers, Appropriate Process Technologies (APT). APT's small scale mining equipment is simple to use, efficient and effective. Options are available for the recovery of gold, tin, chrome, tantalite and more.
For the last twenty years, discussions about "small-scale mining" have largely referred to artisanal mining activities. Terms have been used interchangeably, so that "small-scale mining" has effectively become a synonym for "artisanal small-scale mining" (ASM) (see e.g. Hilson, 2006; Aryee et al., 2003). The use of the acronym ASM ...

Overcoming small-scale challenges High capital expenditure and global economic structures have made it financially risky to invest in smaller-scale mining deposits. Investors instead prefer large 'world-class' projects that, even if of a lower grade, can demonstrate economies of scale."The associated costs of setting up a mine - exploration activities, …
