Assessing the adequacy of the global land-based mine development pipeline in the light of future high-demand scenarios: The case of the battery-metals nickel (Ni) and cobalt (Co).
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the limits of the mining industry pipeline for development of new mines for these two metals, regarding both the size of total anticipated production capacity and the pace of mine development.

Efficient utilization of nickel laterite to produce master alloy
TL;DR: In this paper, the optimization of slag and alloy systems was investigated to enable the reduction of laterite ore in the molten state at 1723 K. The master Fe-Ni-Mo alloy was successfully produced at a lower temperature (1723 K).

Climate Change 2007: The Physical Science Basis Summary for Policymakers:
Abstract: The Working Group I contribution to the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report describes progress in understanding of the
human and natural drivers of climate change1, observed climate change, climate processes and attribution, and
estimates of projected future climate change. It builds upon past IPCC assessments and incorporates new findings from the past six years of research. Scientific progress since the TAR is based upon large amounts of new and more
comprehensive data, more sophisticated analyses of data, improvements in understanding of processes and their
simulation in models, and more extensive exploration of uncertainty ranges.
Risk assessment and management

- 01 Jan 1987
TL;DR: New metabolic and mechanistic data are used to suggest a basis for the failure of "classical" risk assessment methods to provide accurate predictions for humans in this instance.

Environmental costs of mercury pollution.
TL;DR: A tentative monetary value is put on Hg polluted food sources in the Arctic, where local, significant pollution sources are limited, and this to costs for strategies avoiding Hg pollution and to remediation costs of contaminated sites in Sweden and Japan.
