Direct impacts are those in which the extraction of material is directly responsible for the ecosystem impact, such as due to the removal of floodplains habitat. Indirect impacts are related to ecosystem changes that are propagated through the system due to physical changes in the river system resulting from sand extraction.

Since 2010, a construction boom in Myanmar has fueled a sharp increase in the extraction of sand from the Ayeyarwady that is then used in cement and asphalt. Environmental groups say this dredging is destabilizing the river and placing stress on the Ayeyarwady Delta, the country's main rice-producing region. Experts warn that the rate of sand ...

Sand and gravel mining refers to the actual process of removal of sand or gravel from a place of occurrence. The increase in demand for sand and gravel for construction purposes has placed immense pressure on the environment where these resources occur. Miners employ different methods of extraction along river channels and their flood plains.

Alumina is the common name given to aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3). Alumina is produced from bauxite, an ore that is mined from topsoil in various tropical and subtropical regions. The Bayer process, discovered in 1887, is the primary process by which alumina is extracted from bauxite. To produce pure aluminum, alumina is smelted using the Hall ...

After extraction, the insoluble residue is known as red mud or bauxite residue. Its color and name are due to its high iron oxide content. For each tone of alumina produced, 2–3 tons of bauxite ore should be used. Depending on the quality of bauxite ore, 1–2 tons of RM waste are also produced as a byproduct (Rai et al., 2017).

This study aims to determine aluminum fractions in the fine earth of acidic soils under different land uses (forest, pasture and cultivation) and in the river bed sediments of the headwater of the Mero River in order to identify and quantify Al-bearing phases to assess Al mobility and potential bioavailability (environmental availability) in the monitoring area. Sequential extraction is used ...

The Hidden Environmental Toll of Mining the World's Sand. By far the largest mining endeavor globally is digging up sand, mainly for the concrete that goes into buildings. But this little-noticed and largely unregulated activity has serious costs — damaging rivers, wreaking havoc on coastal ecosystems, and even wiping away entire islands.

They are composed of about 80%-92% silica, up to 15% alumina, and 2% iron oxide. The alumina content gives the molding sand the proper binding properties required to hold the shape of the mold cavity.

The method I prefer, and teach, is the Water Extraction Method. The big benefit of this method is that usable clay can be extracted from the most marginal of soils. The clay shown below was processed from soil that was almost 70 percent sand and, using other methods, would have been considered unusable.
