The Archives of Mining Sciences focuses on the analysis of geological materials and processes relevant to mining operations. Research includes the characterization of coal and rock properties, such as pore structure, gas adsorption, and mechanical strength, for applications in resource extraction and safety. The journal also covers the environmental impacts of mining, including dust management and waste-dump estimation, as well as the stability of underground structures and slopes.
