Intensive courses for doctoral students
We invite professors for lecturing in intensive courses for doctoral students for developing cooperation possibilities and exchanging information. Cources are supported by Doctoral School. Courses duration is 2-5 days. The topics that we are interested are: mineral processing, mechanical extraction, geostatistics, technical evaluation of mining facilities, transportation, backfilling technology and underground waste disposal mining constructions stability, roof and overburden rock behavior, numerical modeling of blasting operation, collapse and subsidence’s ect.
For registration courses topics please contact to Dr. Sergei Sabanov, Senior Researcher at Department of Mining, Tallinn University of Technology.

Cooperation with People Friendship University of Russia (RUDN) and Tallinn University of Technology, Department of Mining
RUDN project: Elaboration of technology for development of ecologically safe oil shale mining.
The research will link with Tallinn University of Technology, Department of Mining scientists for assessing the quality and availability of ground water because its vulnerability to contamination requires adequately characterizing the geologic, geophysical, geotechnical and geochemical factors controlling subsurface fluid flow and contaminant dispersal. Although it is relatively easy to determine the average hydrologic properties of a rock mass or sediment, one of the greatest challenges to effective waste isolation lies in accurately characterizing hydrologic heterogeneity and preferential flow paths (for example, the one fracture, fault, or stream-channel deposit that may carry most of the contaminants). Also, predicting the long-term hydrologic behavior of aquifers and aquitards and the attenuation or degradation of toxic wastes requires an improved understanding of the physical, chemical, and biological processes controlling the evolution of hydrologic properties and fluid chemistry through time.
Determining the best technology application for any oil shale project depends on the location, the setting, and the composition of the target oil shale deposit(s) and requires individual design considerations to maximize its economics.
WORKING-PLAN FOR THE PERIOD OF January 2010 to December 2011
The activities to be carried out and the deadlines are as follows:
1. 2010 y. Field studies and sampling of oil shale in “Estonia” mine, “Narva” open cast in Estonia and in Kashpir deposit in Russia. 2010 February – August. September 2010 International conferences RLEPT9. Responsible executive Dr. Sergei Sabanov. Measurements in the Laboratory at Department of Petroleum Geology, Mining and Oil and Gas Business for Experimental and Environmental Study of In-Situ Oil-Shale Retorting. 2010 October-December. Responsible filler Dr. Alexander Vorobiev.
2. 2011 y. Assessing the quality and availability of ground water because its vulnerability to contamination requires adequately characterizing the geologic, geophysical, geotechnical and geochemical factors controlling subsurface fluid flow and contaminant dispersal. 2010 January – June. Responsible executive Dr. Alexander Vorobiev. Determining the best technology application for any oil shale project depends on the location, the setting, and the composition of the target oil shale deposit(s) and requires individual design considerations to maximize its economics. 2010 July – October. September 2011 International conferences RLEPT10. Responsible filler Dr. Sergei Sabanov. 2011 November-December. Compilation of database and interpretation of results. Responsible filler Dr. Sergei Sabanov and Dr. Alexander Vorobiev.
