Dust Dispersion Modeling of Mines by Wind Characteristics

Focusing on dust dispersion modeling, this book aims to calculate ambient ground-level concentrations of mine dust carried by the wind. It evaluates emission sources from open-cast mining activities, estimates emission factors from operations like drilling and blasting, and utilizes these factors to predict dust levels around mines. Additionally, it emphasizes the collection and analysis of meteorological data, including wind characteristics, and conducts seasonal dust monitoring using High Volume Dust Samplers to inform dispersion modeling efforts.
