Overview of MBN meeting in Norway
Project partner meeting in Norway was held on April 24 upto - April 28 2012 in Stavanger.
Into the framework of the meeting we visited Titania AS, where 3.5 million tonnes of titanium ore is mined. We visited IRIS research drillrig Ullrigg, where they test the equipment for oil drilling. On the conference “Conference on petroleum waste management”, professor Ingo Valgma presented the topic: “Experiences with oil shale waste management”.
Photos from meeting:
Next MIN-NOVATION MBN meeting is on June 18 to June 22 2012 in Örebro,Sweden.

MIN-NOVATION Baltic Network Meeting in Stavanger, Norway, 24-28.04.2012
Tuesday, April 24 begins MIN-NOVATION project Baltic
Network Meeting in Stavanger, Norway. Tallinn University of Technology is
represented by TUT Mining Department professor Ingo Valgma and teaching
assistant Veiko Karu.
On the conference “Conference on petroleum waste
management”, professor Ingo Valgma presents the topic: “Experiences with oil
shale waste management”.
MIN-NOVATION is a European Union Baltic Sea Region project “Mining and Mineral Processing Innovation Network for Small- and Medium-sized Enterprises in Waste Technologies”. Project partners are from Poland, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Estonia.
MIN-NOVATION
aims to create a trans-national network with regional networks as building
blocks of effective multi-lateral cooperation. The activities carried out on
the regional and transnational level will secure better access to knowledge,
state-of-the-art technologies and good practice to SMEs (small and medium
enterprices) active in the mineral waste management & prevention sector.
The project will address all the waste management challenges and opportunities
which face the Baltic Sea Region mining industry, which should be understood as
extending to all forms of extraction of natural non-renewable resources.
MIN-NOVATION Baltic network
(MBN) has set up with the essential role of facilitating diffusion of knowledge
and good practices between regions. This will involve providing transnational
feedback to regional issues, and elevating cross-regional issues to status of
transnational priority areas.
MIN-NOVATION project is part
R&D activity in Department of Mining and is related to the study of “Conditions
of sustainable mining”, GRANT7499 - mi.ttu.ee/ETF7499; „Backfilling
and waste management in Estonian oil shale industry“, GRANT8123 -
mi.ttu.ee/ETF8123

Overview of 5th Regional meeting in Tallinn, 21.02.2012
Min-Novation meeting
was held on 21 February 2012. The meeting was organized by the Department of
Mining, Tallinn University of Technology.
Min-Novation meeting
was attended by 30 people from mining enterprises, Ministry of the Environment
and Department of Mining.
The aim of the meeting was to present ideas and
assumptions of the MIN-NOVATION project and give interesting lectures.
The first part of the meeting dealt with
MIN-NOVATION project topics in a talk given by Veiko Karu. After Veiko Karu, Ott Talvik gave two presentations: “Evaluation
of Local Aggregate Unbound Mixtures for Estonian Highway Base Courses” and “Using
limestone fines in road construction, and trends”. The first part of the meeting ended with a brainstorming session “How
can we use mining wastes?”
Jüri-Rivaldo Pastarus started the second part of the meeting by giving an overview talk “Methodology
of Oil Shale mines backfilling”. This was followed by an invited lecture, presented by Mr. Klaus Neubrand from Putzmeister
Solid Pumps GmbH “Transport of tailing
for preparation of landfilling areas and backfilling of mines with Putzmeister
hydraulically driven piston pumps”.
