Promising reagents for the extraction of strategic metals from difficult-to-enrich mineral raw materials by Tamara N. Matveeva, Nadezhda K. Gromova, Lyudmila B. Lantsova

“…The need of the mining and processing industry for new types of directional reagents is due to the deterioration of the material composition of the processed ores. Low Au content (less than 0.5-1.0 g/t), finely dispersed Au inclusions (0.1-10.0 microns) in the ore, similar properties of the separated minerals have an extremely negative effect on flotation performance when using traditional reagents, which leads to significant losses of valuable metal with enrichment tailings. …”

Coral Reef Health Index On Sangiang Island by Rahma Aprilian, Dietriech Geoffrey Bengen, Erlania Erlania, Ofri Johan, Idris Idris

“…Data collection of benthic components uses the Underwater Photo Transect (UPT) method and data collection of fish components uses the Underwater Visual Census (UVC) method. The results showed that the coral reef health index on Sangiang Island was at values 6 and 5, means the live coral cover on Sangiang Island was included in the high and medium category, and the level of coral reef resilience or recovery potential was included in the high category, while the total biomass of the target reef fish is still in the low category, only a few species of fish were found that belong to the target reef fish.…”
