Mining is indispensable to the creation of goods, infrastructure and services which enhance the quality of their lives. Demand of coal as energy resources is always important and significant. But thousands of people have lost their lives in mining accidents, all over the world working in the earth presents many different security and health dangers. So here we propose a mining tracking as well as safety system for the mining industry using microcontroller based circuit on the worker safety. We use RF based circuitry to detect workers moving through the entire mining site. We used ARDUINO UNO as main micro controller. The system makes use of ATMEGA Microcontroller based RF tracker circuitry used to transmit and receive data by using EM-18 RFID reader module with RFID cards. This helps to track the current location of workers through the entire mining site. Moreover each RFID card circuit is integrated with a panic/emergency button. When this button is pressed it shows an emergency alert over the IOT webpage. This can be used for any emergencies like – toxic gas inhalation, physical injury etc. Thus the system ensures mining worker Safety using IOT.

Монгол Улсын эдийн засаг өндөр хурдацтай өсч байгаа нь уул уурхайн салбарын өсөлттэй салшгүй холбоотой. Уул уурхайн салбарт өсөлт бий болж эерэг үр дүн гарч байгаа ч эрдсийн бүтээгдэхүүнийг олон улсын зах зээлийн үнээс хямд үнээр экспортлож байна. Үүний зэрэгцээ манай орны уул уурхайн худалдаа зохион байгуулалтгүй, төсвийн орлого бүрдэлт, эрдсийн бүтээгдэхүүний чанар, боловсруулалтын түвшин хангалтгүй байгаа нь олон улсын зах зээлд өрсөлдөх чадварыг сулруулж байгаа зэрэг сөрөг үзэгдэл байсаар байна.  Монгол Улсын уул уурхайн салбарт тулгарч байгаа асуудлыг судалж олон улсын жишгээр уул уурхайн бүтээгдэхүүний биржийг Монгол Улсад байгуулах нь зүйтэй гэсэн саналыг дэвшүүлж байна. Уул уурхайн бүтээгдэхүүний биржийн талаар судлахдаа манай орны эрдсийн бүтээгдэхүүний нөөц, үйлдвэрлэл, хэрэглээ болон олон улсын металлын биржийн туршлага зэргийг харгалзаж үзсэн болно.   Requirements and Opportunities for Establishment of Mining exchange in Mongolia  A rapid economic growth of Mongolia is inseparable linked to the development of mining industry. Although there is a positive result in the mining industry sector, mineral products are exported in low price compared to the world market one. Besides there is a negative factor that impacts on competitiveness of products in the world market budgeting due to the unorganized mining trading, and quality of mineral products is unsatisfactory. Establishment of Mining Exchange based on research of mining sector’s issues in Mongolia is required. The research on Mining Exchange of international exchange considered the experience of minerals reserve, manufacturing and consumption.

In the wake of the Pope Francis' encyclical Laudato sì which talks about the Earth as a common home of all people, the author offers a draft of ecological spirituality. The beginning of true eco-spirituality is ecological conversion, which is nothing else but a renewed consciousness that from our faith and encounter with Jesus Christ we also ought to change our relationship with the world around us. Ecological conversion should help the faithful to repeatedly and correctly develop their awareness of having been created, of their own immersion into the world of creatures with which they are interconnected. Correct ecological attitude leads to internal balance of the man himself, to solidarity with others, to natural balance of all living beings and to spiritual balance with God. Ecological awareness can help not only to preserve the environment, which is one of the basic goals, but also to change the way of behaviour, which can raise the quality of life of both the individual and the family. Ecological spirituality understands and lives the sacraments in a new way, as a means of salvation and sanctification, because in the sacraments God uses the visible matter in order to communicate his (invisible) grace. Eco-spirituality calls for upbringing and adopting new attitudes in the lives of contemporary Christians which need to help them to properly treat the created world.

In conclusion to this book, Chapter 6 looks at the Middle Ages’ model of reproductive perfection—fathers producing sons—to identify how even in the most ideal of circumstances, men cannot gain a true authority upon the earth. For from the Monk’s Tale to the Knight’s Tale to the Nun’s Priest’s Tale, Chaucer makes men confront how poorly they resemble the quality of their fathers. Each generation becomes a siring of loss, a gradual descent into something worse than its progenitor. And yet, Chaucer agues, there is nothing else for men within the world. To reproduce in the pursuit of authority is a doomed quest, one that he himself will repent of in the Retractions. But there is nothing more human than the desire to create something that will last beyond one’s death, to hope in a future posterity even knowing the odds against its realization.

This paper considers Art’s engagement with the socio-ecological systems in operation in the world. Drawing from both environmental and art history, this paper employs the Deleuzean concept of the fold to suggest three overlapping periods of ecological-systems awareness over the past sixty years. This paper demonstrates how we have shifted our attention from a material engagement with the Earth to a primary engagement with systems which describe and simulate the Earth. This shift in attention to secondary information and an enfoldment within systems, defined as the Post-Systems Condition, manifests in the aesthetic quality of the eerie and a profound sense of saudade or longing for a lost nature.

The role of the mining industry in the world economy is enormous, since its branches are the most important source of industrial raw materials, without which the intensive growth of modern industry would be completely impossible. However, the technologies used in it are not always innovative. Despite the fact that the mining industry occupies a fairly small percentage in the structure of the world economy and does not exceed 10%, it is an important source of income for many states, including Russia. However, the changes that are now observed in the global economy require new approaches to organizing activities. Despite its profitability, this industry is quite difficult to manage. The way from the extraction of raw materials to their end user is very complicated and depends on many conditions. For the successful integration of the Russian mining industry into new economic realities, it is necessary to intensify innovative processes by investing financial resources in new equipment and high technology. At the same time, acceleration of the development of the mining industry can be achieved in the chain “mining industry - processing industry” through the introduction and use of nanotechnology, which can significantly improve the quality of raw materials.

This chapter seeks to invoke the graceful and relentless violence of John Hicklenton’s 100 Months in a bombardment of theoretical elaboration that, with Benjamin, explores the violent quality of critique: created in Hicklenton’s final moments before ending his own life at Dignitas. 100 Months tears down the perception that capitalism has made the world dehumanized, commodified, and godless, and portrays the journey of Mara—the soul of the Earth—in her relentless evisceration of the ‘Longpig paradise’ that represents the cannibalization of the subject under the pursuit of profit, of capital, of coin, and whilst Mara may be the ‘feminine destructive principle’, the ‘end of all things’, amidst the blood and horror, the splatter and sinew, her trajectory presents a change that indicates her temporary form, thus reflecting the violent and temporary quality of critique itself: ‘You may call me … the destructive interim formation’.

The deep copper-silver ores in the central and eastern parts of the Fore-Sudetic Monocline had been unknown until the mid-1950s. During the following decades, gradually progressing studies and analyses of core material from a limited number of deep boreholes drilled in this region made it possible to acquire detailed information and to demarcate areas of potential mineral deposits, along with the estimation of their predicted resources. In spite of the above, due to the technological barriers which limited their profitable extraction to depths not exceeding 1250 m, those areas were not formerly considered as potential mining targets. It is only because of the progressing technological advancement that the extraction of those minerals has currently become possible and attainable, as evidenced by experience from all over the world. Because of the extensive exploration program conducted for several years in south-western Poland by companies belonging to the Miedzi Copper Group, the documenting of deep copper and silver deposits in this area has now become realistic. A primary condition of economically justified extraction is focusing on regions characterised by a higher quality of ore.

Why Environment again? But then, how many times have there been Earth Summits, if only for the purpose of reminding the world of an important issue: The Environment? This issue of Al-Raida does not pretend to be an expert in environmental science or in the political and economic debates and dialogues that surrounded the Summit. Al-Raida only wishes to shed some light on the place, the participation and the involvement of women .in the struggle for protecting nature, improving the quality of life and saving the Earth.
