This project combines real-time dust monitoring technology with advanced dust characterisation methods to better understand exposure dynamics and improve dust control strategies in mining environments.
Occupational exposure to respirable dust remains a major cause of occupational lung disease across industries including mining, tunnelling, construction and engineered stone fabrication.
A landmark project is digitising almost a century of Queensland’s seismic records to help scientists and emergency services better understand the state’s earthquake risk.
Sand, gravel and limestone are necessary for the construction of foundations for wind turbines and solar panels, as well as the walls of hydroelectric dams and pumped hydro facilities.
Forget lithium, copper and rare earths – new research has found that sand and aggregates are the real secret ingredient of the renewable energy transition.
Flinders University will lead the newly funded ARC Training Centre for Advancing Archaeology in the Resources Sector, recently awarded $5 million through the Australian Research Council (ARC)’s Industrial Transformation Research Program.
