Anglo Asian Mining encourages its staff to attend mining-related conferences and to publish papers in scientific and technical journals, to enable them to broaden their knowledge of their subject areas and to help them keep abreast of the latest developments and technologies in the mining industry.
Members of staff and their collaborators have published papers in journals and at conferences on the geology of Gedabek and its surrounding districts and on the processes used to treat the ores from the Company’s mines. The titles of these papers are listed chronologically below and full copies of the papers may be downloaded where indicated.
