From geostatistical calculation of mineral reserves to selection of mining equipment; The relationship between evaluation of mine ore grade and associated beneficial components; From the changing trend of groundwater and lake water quality to the impact on human health. The business fields involved are: geology, mining, mineral processing, environment, meteorology, forest, soil, hydrology and so on. , the content is quite extensive.
