				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many people say that there is money in mining.  However, mining can be a very dangerous and risky business. Aside from the fact that it can cause negative reactions to the health of miners, mining can also put their life at risk. Nonetheless, companies and industries still pursue this kind of business due to mining’s high return of investment. According to a mining expert named <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/pub/richard-fifer/13/352/93a">Richard Fifer</a>, there are a lot of things that workers or miners can do in order to protect themselves from the possible hazards that mining can cause. Richard Fifer is considered as the father of Panamanian mining and has been very famous for his works and contributions to the production of different minerals and land resources. This is the reason why Mr. Fifer is also very well aware of the various techniques and guidelines that miners should abide in order to reduce the risk mining accidents and catastrophes. Below are some of Richard Fifer’s selected guidelines in promoting safety in mining.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/richardfifer">Richard Fifer</a> stressed the importance of following the right policies, equipment, manuals and training in order to improve safety in the field of mining. It is necessary to use proper equipment and mining gears in order help protect the employees of a particular mining company. Mr. Fifer also concluded that the advent of technology has tremendously helped miners use effective tools that can extract minerals and resources without putting the lives of the workers at risk. Some of these tools and gears pointed out by Richard Fifer includes the hard hat, ventilation fans, forklifts and as well as the use of appropriate mining clothes or attire.</p>
<div>
<p>The use of a hard hat is very important in mining since it helps protect the miner’s head from any type of trauma or injury that could cause severe damage or could also be potentially fatal. This is actually considered as very basic equipment that every miner must carry or wear at all times while working on site. On the other hand, the use of ventilation fans is also classified as essential especially for mining sites that are located underground. These fans aid in the proper circulation of air especially in tight and enclosed spaces. Without these instruments, it is very likely for miners to have different kinds of lung problems and diseases. Forklifts are also very important since it helps miners transport large and heavy debris from one place to the other. The use of forklifts can prevent miners from having a hard time transporting large objects that could also cause back strains and body aches. Last but not the least, wearing of appropriate mining uniform can likewise protect the entire body from any type of mining hazards. These are just some of the tools and precautions miners must take seriously according to Richard Fifer.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Manufacturing plants, HVAC technicians, and design engineers all use pressure testing equipment both in the field and in-house. Portable kits are often used in the field as they come with pipe adapters to fit a wide range of machinery.  Accurate pressure testing is important when you are dealing with hydraulic fluids. <a href="http://www.hydrotechnik.co.uk/">Minimess pressure testing equipment</a> is of the highest standard, able to perform accurate measurements with a leak free test. If you want to guarantee compliance with industry standards and regulations, you need equipment you can trust.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Pressure tests are performed for a variety of reasons. A hydraulic machine could explode under pressure or stop functioning. There is also the danger that a machine or system won&#8217;t stop functioning under pressure. The wrong amount of pressure could also cause leaks of dangerous hydraulic fluids.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Minimess pressure testing equipment features highly accurate analogue pressure gauges.  Pressure testing is extremely important for any hydraulic machines or system being put into use. The equipment must met certain pressure standards for reliability and safety. If pressure testing can be accomplished quickly and efficiently, the proper functioning of the equipment can be assured as well as the safety of anyone working near or using the equipment.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A pressure tester should also have various gauge adapters to test a wide variety of pipes and fittings. <a href="http://www.hydrotechnik.co.uk/">Visit Hydrotechnik </a>to see a full range of test kits from economy-priced models to kits featuring six gauge fixed metal test boxes. BSP, Metric, JIC, ORFS based kits fill the needs of a wide variety of users. While there is a variety of manufacturers and distributors of pressure testing equipment, it is vital to buy quality equipment. Price should never be the first consideration as pressure testing is usually safety related, but in today&#8217;s economy, companies have to find reasonably priced test equipment to stay competitive.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">The idea would be to cover unforeseen possibilities in the mine closure plan, or for any environmental liability sectors, such as those proposed by the executive director of the Peruvian Environmental Law Society (SPDA), Manuel Pulsar-Vidal.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">He said the official newspaper El Peru no need to recognize that one of the basic principles in the development of human activity is solidarity. &#8220;It would be something like Traffic Accidents Compulsory Insurance (SOAT).&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;One of the major risks of driving a car is to have traffic accidents, and how to show solidarity with the victims is to provide insurance coverage. Therefore, all handlers are required to pay,&#8221; he said as an example.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">He said that in the case of mining will look like this. &#8220;If we realize that an activity has a negative impact and we want to minimize, avoid or prevent them, it would be more appropriate to have the resources to reverse this situation.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Pulsar Vidal noted that these funds should be handled with total transparency. &#8220;The constitution will go through the trust and management by an entity that cans public-private partnership,&#8221; he suggested.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">He added that these resources should not go to the Treasury because it has a procedure that can be very tricky, because one purpose of the fund will be easy to implement.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;The idea is that the environmental problems of a quick solution can be implemented using the bottom,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Government intention to establish a contingency fund as an interesting concept but need more details of the proposal for a complete analysis and identify its impact on the sector, said President of the National Society of Mining, Petroleum and Energy (SNMPE), Carlos del Solar.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">He stated that the best will request additional information from the authorities involved in this activity.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On the other hand, said he agreed with the message given by the President of the Republic, Lolita Humana, during the 5 the International Business Forum of China-Latin America, while emphasizing the need to stop exporting only raw materials (minerals) and passed to offer value-added products are more high.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">However, he said that in the case of a large mining sector investment needed to take a big step. &#8220;We are on track to achieve, but it is a slow process.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">He stressed the need to attract new investment into the mining sector, which is required for stable and attractive conditions for investors.</p>

However, a lower value compared with the beginning of the year. Base metals and silver have fallen from last year, but gold rose.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This is the first working day of 2012, the price of $ 8.79 per pound lead us fine, much lower than the beginning of 2011, as quoted us $ 12.31. Decline in value was 29% as the decline of U.S. $ 3.52.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the case of zinc, starting 2012 with a value of U.S. $ 0.82 a pound fines, years ago, was at U.S. $ 1.12, bringing the decline was from $ U.S. 30 cents (27%). Meanwhile, less than 30 December 2011, when the U.S. valued at $ 0.87.<br />
Copper fell about a dollar a year, it is in $ U.S. 3.47 per pound of good and last year came to $, we 4.42 which means a reduction of U.S. $ 95 cents.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.pushfluids.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/seabed-mineral-resources.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-99" title="seabed mineral resources" src="http://www.pushfluids.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/seabed-mineral-resources.jpg" alt="seabed mineral resources" width="274" height="184" /></a>Russia has begun to actively compete for seabed mineral resources. The International Seabed Authority (ISA) has approved a request by Moscow to conduct geological investigations in the sources of Kommersant Atlántico.Según sea, this is one of the largest untapped deposits in the world, copper and gold contents of between five and ten times that of landline. The project will be undertaken by the Geological Survey Expedition Polar and Marine Research Center VNII Okeangeologia, and has a budget of up to 43 million dollars over the next five years. Kommersant sources in the Russian government&#8217;s initiative shows that the Russian exploration of marine resources associated with a strong intensification of China in the same sector.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Russian Natural Resources Ministry announced on August 3, that the application for the exploration of mineral resources in the seabed was filed in December 2010 and approved on July 19 during a meeting at ISA headquarters in Kingston, Jamaica. In addition to Russia&#8217;s request, which was also adopted from China and Pacific island countries, Nauru and Tonga? This is the first time in history that the ISA authority without drilling in marine waters attached to the economic zone in accordance with specific circumstances.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Dario Vasilevskaya, deputy director of the department of state policies and regulations in the field of geology and exploitation of natural resources Natural Resources Ministry, told Kommersant that the contract with the ISA will be signed at the end of 2011 and will last for fifteen years, extendable to five. Explore the region that Russia has 100 blocks, each of 100 square kilometers and is located in the northern Cordillera Centroatlántica. Supplied minerals are found at depths of 2-4 kilometers. It is understood that Russia will have priority to exploit the deposits, according to the press service the Ministry of Natural Resources. The contract will last for two public companies: Prospecting Expedition Polar and Marine Geology Research Center VNII Okeangeologia.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">According to information obtained by Kommersant, this exploration plans of one of the largest gold and copper deposits in the world, which is still unexplored. &#8220;In the land given to the Russians have found six promising sites. A rough estimate of the resources is between 50 and 70 million tones of dry ore body,&#8221; he told Kommersant Sergey Andreyev, deputy director of the department of geology and mineral resources Ocean World Okeangeologia VNII. &#8220;Keep in mind that the mineral content of rocks under the water several times larger than the earth&#8217;s surface.&#8221; According to experts, the average copper content in soil is 1%, while in submarine sulfide is given to Russia could be between 2.5% and 10% on average (maximum level is 30%) and a ton of rocks containing between 4 and 10 grams of gold. (17 g per ton maximum) If this assessment is confirmed, these resources will be comparable with those of the company Norilsk Nickel (Norilsk Nickel)&#8230;<span id="more-98"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">According to Kommersant opponents in the Russian government, Moscow believes that the project of exploitation of minerals in the sea is equally important that the defense of Russian interests in exploiting the potential of hydrocarbon reserves in the Arctic (the institution that defines the limits of the continental shelf of the Russian Federation in the Arctic Ocean only VNII Okeangeologia). According to experts, Russia&#8217;s Deputy Prime Minister Igor Sachem and Natural Resources Minister Yuri Turned most involved in this aunt.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sources in the Russian Foreign Ministry said that Moscow&#8217;s growing interest in marine mineral resources associated with China&#8217;s increased activity in this area. &#8220;For many years, told the exploration of the power-ocean navy conducted without notifying the ISA. However, May 7, 2010, China made a formal request to conduct a survey on the part of the Mountains of Southwest Indian Ocean’s when we decided to expedite our request itself&#8230; &#8220;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">According to Dario Vasilevskaya, project development during the next five years will cost the state between 20 and 43 million dollars. Nikolai Sosnovsky, Bank VTB Capital, believes that investment in geological prospecting is quite simple. According to him, the annual cost of Russia&#8217;s leading gold higher. An investment of between 20 and 40 million to explore the deposit either in the ground with a capacity of 5 million ounces, or about 140 tons. In the case of the sea, is also possible to limit this budget. Canadian company, Nautilus Minerals, which plans to launch in 2013-2014 the first exploitation of gold mines in water depths of 1.6 km along the coast of Papua New Guinea, Geology invested 12.4 million dollars in the year 2010 2010-9900000.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">However, this excludes the technical installations. Nautilus spent about $ 25 million a year just in chartering a boat for geological exploration. Rent single deep-water submersible automatic costs $ 3,000 per day. During the extraction stage, the cost is higher: the ship Nautilus to concentrate production will cost $ 167 million, the separator column and the amount of lift systems to $ 116 million and facility surveys and collectors have been priced at $ 84 million.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Russian geologists are also waiting for a big investment. Sergey Andreyev, of VNII Okeangeologia, said that for the prospecting phase will require a new research vessel (&#8220;Professor Logachiov&#8221; Nikolayev built 20 years ago and has become obsolete), survey and installation of diving. &#8220;The problem is that no such equipment produced in Russia. Sevmorgeo public research units and production company has developed several projects, but it requires political will,&#8221; believe Serguéyev. Kommersant has learned that there is a copy of the poll Sevmorgeo facility exists as a pilot cannot be completed until a year and a half &#8220;At the moment we have no new submarine automatic. But Russia has two Mir submersibles, high depth, and the Russ Submersible and Consul. It will be enough for the first eight years of prospecting, &#8220;the source said they were, problems could be solved with foreign partners who have the necessary technology  &#8230; The most likely candidate is the appropriate Nautilus Minerals. More specifically note that the Russian businessman Calisher Usmanov acquires 20% of the company in 2006 to $ 43.5 million. However, as the representative of the Ministry has not discussed the issue of Russia&#8217;s participation in the project Nautilus and Nautilus. Usmanov does not respond to requests Kommersant, and any comment from the company Metalloinvest, strong mining and metallurgical holding owned by the same Usmanov.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In any case, Russia is ready to run the project until the end. &#8220;For us, ocean exploration is an important geopolitical project aimed at defending the interests of Russia as a world power in the raw materials,&#8221; said a source at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia. In addition, according to Kommersant, Russia is preparing another application for the ISA, this time for prospecting for cobalt Ferro-magnesium-containing cobalt in the Pacific sea floor, which can be studied in 2012.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The decision to have PV solar panels installed at your home is a major decision. For many people, it is an investment and the decision as to what type of panels are chosen and who installs them should be made as carefully as any other investment. A careful decision will bring tax-free, inflation adjusted income in addition to free, environmentally-friendly electricity to the homeowner.</p>
<p>In the UK, there are literally hundreds of MCS certified companies that install all types of PV solar panels which qualify homeowners to join the feed-in tariff scheme. Most companies offer choices of PV solar panels with the differences in panels being related to their efficiency  and their looks.</p>
<p>PV solar panels are not all the same. The company performing the installation can determine what types of panels and what size system would be most beneficial, sticking within the homeowner&#8217;s budget needs. It is recommended that a person get at least three estimates before selecting an installer.  But remember, the cheapest PV solar panels are not always the best investment as they may not be as efficient. As many solar panels have not been on the market too long, it is hard to judge their lifetime. Homeowners who believe they may be selling their home in the next 20 years or so should also consider the look of the panels from the eyes of a potential buyer.</p>
