Characterisation of Natural Moulding Sands from selected Deposits in Maidugur...AZOJETE UNIMAID
Natural moulding sands consist of refractory sand grains associated with clay right from their deposit locations. In Maiduguri, there are some sand casting activities taking place. However, there seems to be no single graded source of moulding sand that the practitioners can use for producing qualitative sand castings. Therefore, this study was carried out to characterise moulding sands from five selected deposits in Maiduguri for possible use in sand casting applications. Chemical compositions of sand samples were determined using XRF Analyser while American Foundrymen’s Society (AFS) standard laboratory tests were used to determine the physico-mechanical properties. The results of the characterisation revealed the following ranges of values; clay content from 21.8% to 47.2% corresponding to Pompomari and Gwange/Fori, grain fineness number from 50.94 AFS to 95.02 AFS corresponding to Pompomari and Gwange/Fori deposits.. Other physico-mechanical properties determined included; green and dry compressive strengths, permeability, loss on ignition and refractoriness. Results of chemical composition analysis show SiO2 having dominance in all the samples (90.10 % to 66.77 %) with trace elements of CaO, Fe2O3, Al2O3, MgO, TiO2, K2O, NaO2 also present within acceptable limits. The overall results show that all deposits have potential for use in sand casting applications for the casting of nonferrous metals and malleable and ductile iron. However, the clay content range given above is a major problem compared with the standards recommended by the American Foundry Society. This did not only limit their uses to low melting point alloys because of relatively lower refractoriness values but also possesses danger to their life expectancy. In conclusion, the use of the deposits characterised especially the Gwange/Fori deposit with clay content of 47.2 % should be used with caution because of the possibility of developing gas defects like blowholes and pinholes. All the other four deposits have been recommended for full exploitation for use in sand casting applications for casting of nonferrous metals as well as malleable and ductile irons. Finally, on the basis of the overall properties, the five deposits have rated in the following order of preferences; Dala Lawanti, Pompomari, Gwange/Fori, Gamboru and University of Maiduguri respectively.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

Num perspective on employment equity by eddie majadibodu
1. THE NUM PERSPECTIVE ON EMPLOYMENT
EQUITY
MINING LEKGOTLA 2013

2. THE PROBLEM STATEMENT
Understanding the Labour Market
• SA transition from apartheid described as triple transition
Political democratisation
Economic liberalisation
Need to deracialisation of society- that often stand in
contradiction
• Contradiction of triple transition become visible at the
workplace where apartheid labour market was formed
MiningLekgotla-2013

3. THE PROBLEM STATEMENT
The workplace is also where this legacy has to be unmade
(Von Holdt 2003)
Government has made targeted interventions (EEA, SDA, AA),
etc. to unmake apartheid workplace regime. However, success
especially on objective measures of EE remains lacklustre.
Since labour (LM) is not a commodity, its reproduction is social
and relatively autonomous.
LM involves process of incorporation, allocation, control and
reproduction (Peck 1996)

4. CLASS, RACE & THE MINING
SECTOR
An examination of the role and structure of the South African
mining industry has been central to analysis of the
relationship between capitalism and apartheid.
The system of labour control, which includes migrant labour,
contract labour, racial despotism and single sex hostels is one
of the cornerstones of race and gender relations especially in
mining.
(Bezuidenhout)
MiningLekgotla-2013

5. CASULISATION,EXTERNALISATIONAND
INFORMALISATION
Emerging forms of non-standard employment in the mining and
other industries are often designed to undermine contracts of
employment in order to make implementation of regulation
difficult
It would be ill-considered not to re-examine the sustained impact of
mining industry on South Africa’s post apartheid order (See
MacDonald, Seekings & Nattrass 2006)
An often overlooked structural shift in the industry is the fact that
of every 3 mineworkers, one is employed by one of many of the
outside contractors
MiningLekgotla-2013

7. TheImpactofcontractingoutonEmploymentEquity
Evidence suggest that:
Workers who are contracted out receive wages considerably lower
than permanent employees
They are often housed in separate hostels with appalling
conditions.
They are sometimes used in areas considered to be too dangerous
for permanent employees because of informal nature of
employment arrangements.
They are treated differently from permanent mine employees.
These treatment and practice cheats the requirements and defeats
the purpose of the Employment Equity within the same industry.
The link between exploitation and BEE needs deeper analysis.

13. ANALYSIS & PERSPECTIVE
The pace of transformation very slow
Contracting out employment deliberate stand to undermine
transformation
BEE used to manipulate process of transformation
Skills levels not conducive for employment equity thus
equitable share of income
Resistance to deal with race
Race continue to create skewed distribution of income
Inequality based on race and gender dominates the industry
Black managers not firm on transformation and contributory
to slow pace of transformation
MiningLekgotla-2013

14. What needs to be done
Rearrange power relation between lower mine operations and
corporate offices at senior management levels.
Sector based targets (Skills Development & EE matching levels
of education and skills challenges ( No low targets when
challenges are high).
Centralising coordination of sector skills development,
employment equity and affirmative action.
Analysis of company HR departments influence on HRD and
production related requirements.
Eliminating IR disputes with potential to distract
transformative interventions.
