The white aluminum phases in acid mine drainage usually precipitates when mixed with stream waters with relatively high pH. The minerals in white precipitates play important roles in controlling the behavior of heavy metals by adsorbing and coprecipitation. By the phase transition of these minerals in white precipitates, dissolution and readsorption of heavy metals may occur. This study was conducted to obtain preliminary information on the phase transition of the mineral phases in white precipitates. In this study, the mineral phase changes in the white precipitates collected from the stream around Dogye Mining Site over time were investigated with different pH values and temperatures. White precipitates consist mainly of basaluminite, amorphous $Al(OH)_3$ and a small amount of $Al_{13}$-tridecamer. During aging, the incongruent dissolution of the basaluminite occurs first, increasing the content of the amorphous $Al(OH)_3$. After that, pseudoboehmite is finally precipitated following the precursor phase of pseudoboehmite. At $80^{\circ}C$, this series of processes was clearly observed, but at relatively low temperatures, no noticeable changes were observed from the initial condition with coexisting basaluminite and amorphous $Al(OH)_3$. At high pH, the desorption of $SO{_4}^{2-}$ group in basaluminite was initiated to promote phase transition to the pseudoboehmite precursor. Over time, the solution pH decreases due to the dissolution and phase transition of the minerals, and even after the precipitation of pseudoboehmite, only the particle size slightly increased but no clear cystal form was observed.

In this study, we proposed a diagnostics and assessment model for mining sites that can evaluate the smart mining technology level in a systematic and structured way. For this, the maturity of the smart mining was defined, and detailed assessment items of the diagnostics and assessment model for smart mining were derived by considering the smart factory diagnostics and assessment model (KS X 9001-3) used in the manufacturing industry. While maintaining the existing system, the existing 46 detailed assessment items were modified to be suitable for mining. As a result, a total of 29 detailed assessment items were derived in the areas of promotion strategy, process, information system and automation, and performance. Based on this, a questionnaire was designed to diagnose the level of smart mining technology, and assessment was performed by applying it to domestic iron mines. The level of smart mining technology in the study area was found to be level 2, and it could be inferred that it was about 40% lower than the average smart level of the general manufacturing industry. In addition, by using the developed model, it was possible to recognize the weak points of the mine at each stage of the introduction, operation, and advancement of smart mining, and to suggest investment and improvement directions.

In mineral exploration, there are many data sets which need to be created, processed and analyzed in order to discover a favorable mineralized zone. Recently, with Geographic Information System (GIS), such exploration data sets have been able to be systematically stored and effectively processed using computer technologies. In this study, most exploration data sets were first digitized and then rasterized. Furthermore, they were integrated together by using fuzzy set theory to provide a possibility map toward a target hypothesis. Our target hypothesis is "there is a skarn magnetite deposit in this study" and all fuzzy membership functions were made with respect to the target hypothesis. Test area is extended from 37:00N/l28:30E to 37:20N/I28:45E, approximately 20 km by 40 km. This area is a part of Taebaeksan mineralized areas, where the Sinyemi mine, a skarn magnetite deposit, is located. In final resultant map, high potential or possibility area coincides with the location of the Shinyemi mine. In this regard, we conclude the fuzzy set theory can be effectively applied to this study and provides an excellent example to define potential area for further mineral exploration.

A TBM is an equipment that excavates a tunnel with a full face by rotating a circular cutter head and its advantages are fast excavation rate and safe construction. A TBM, which is primarily used for tunnel excavation on civil construction sites, is easily adaptable to information and communication technology. Research related to unmanned and automated technology is being actively pursued. TBM applications for mining and energy resource development in other countries were investigated in this study. The difference of TBM applications between the mining and energy resource development and civil construction sites was examined. Technical factors such as geological conditions, depth, site access, TBM launching, alignment and inclination, TBM size, and others that should be considered when choosing a TBM were investigated. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of TBM application in mines and the technical requirements for TBM for successful mine application are summarized.

Open-pit mine development requires continuous management because of topographical changes and there is a risk of accidents if the current status survey is performed directly in the process of calculating the earthwork. In this study, the application of UAV photogrammetry, which can acquire spatial information without direct human access, was applied to open-pit mines development area and analyzed the accuracy, earthwork, and mountain restoration plan to determine its applicability. As a result of accuracy analysis at checkpoint using ortho image and Digital Surface Model(DSM) by UAV photogrammetry, Root Mean Square Error(RMSE) is 0.120 m in horizontal and 0.150 m in vertical coordinates. This satisfied the tolerance range of 1:1,000 digital map. As a result of the comparison of the earthwork, UAV photogrammetry yielded 11.7% more earthwork than the conventional survey method. It is because UAV photogrammetry shows more detailed topography. And result of monitoring mountain restoration showed possible to determine existence of rockfall prevention nets and vegetation. If the terrain changes are monitored by acquiring images periodically, the utility of UAV photogrammetry will be further useful to open-pit mine development.

최근 수년간 세계적인 광통신 관련 업체 및 기관들 사이에 광부품의 전기적, 물리적 특징을 규정짓는 표준 규약인 MSA(Multi-Source Agreement)를 통하여 설계시간과 비용을 절감하기 위한 노력들이 다양한 형태로 꾸준히 진행되어 왔다. 이러한 MSA들은 같은 응용제품에 대하여 참여기업 사이의 상호 협약인 만큼 완전한 범세계적 표준은 아니지만, 주요 생산자들과 고객들 사이의 상호 협약을 통하여 시간, 비용 뿐만 아니라 시스템 내에서의 상호 호환성에 대한 부분까지 공유하고 있으므로 관련 제품에 대하여 사실상의 표준화를 선도하고 있다. 본 글에서는 특히 현재 광전송네트웍에서 가장 큰 부분을 차기하고 있는 10Gbps급 광송수신 모듈(광트렌시버)에 대한 MSA들의 주요 특징 및 물리적인 규격들을 비교 분석하였다. 이중에서 일부 MSA를 준수하는 제품군들은 선진 부품 업체들에 의해 최근에야 본격적으로 출시되도 있지만, 조만간 기존의 제품들을 밀어내고 관련 시장에서 가장 큰 비중을 차지할 것으로 전망된다.
