Similarities and Proximity Symmetries for Decisions of Complex Valuation of Mining Resources in Anthropically Affected Areas

Abstract

After 1990, when the economic system changed in Romania, the mining industry was the most controversial field from a productive-economic point of view and subject to reforms and transformations for efficiency. Currently (2022), there are nine main mining perimeters in which the production of useful, energetic, and nonenergetic mineral substances is operational, and in others it has decreased or stopped. Still active mining areas need economic and ecological assessments to identify similarities and proximity symmetries for informed exploitation decisions and feasible complex resource utilization. The main objective of our study is to define a framework for the theoretical and practical contribution to the substantiation of decisions and expressions of interest regarding future investments in mining projects for useful and energetic and non-energetic mineral substances in Romania. Investments in the mining industry are expensive, with major risks and subunit success rates for specific geotechnological conditions. The purpose of the research is to provide the methodology for using some variables of similarities from proximity mining deposits in the stage of exploitation or post-exploitation affected by anthropogenic activity in the national geological territory through a case study of Romania. With the help of statistical scales, the research results highlight that in the exploitation and post-mining perimeters in Romania, the states of “affect” and “post-affect” anthropic, respectively, of eco-economic damage are in a maximum proportion of approximately 36% in relation to the ideal situations of no affect. For a mining investment project, knowing similar or symmetrical exploitation and post-exploitation properties and situations, and from the geological deposits in the vicinity, premises are created for optimized strategic and tactical decisions, based on reality and, above all, for the provision of expressions of interest for new investments that have a programmed, expected success rate.

The Influence of the Budget on National Security in the Context of Economic Crisis

“…Everything that means security and defense potential requires financial, human, and material resources (Rădulescu et al, 2023). The connection between economy and security, that is, between economic factors/resources and the achievement of security is obvious (Gâf-Deac et al, 2022). At the same time, the economy is in turn dependent on security, because in the absence of a safe environment, it has little chance of development, as a result, security and the economy are closely related and depend on each other (Burlacu et al, 2022).…”

Hybrid Energy System Based on the Mix of Fossil and Renewable Energy Resources

“…), based on the results of research and development and on knowledge (learning "about"...) from innovation / innovation. (Gâf-Deac, I.I., 2022), [11] Technical change is introduced in the economic-productive systems, in those of energy production, in order to define the diffusion and development of a new technology, which will determine programmed ("targeted") changes on the lower "relative price" factor in hybrid technological structures.…”

“…In general, endogenous technical change is used in modeling to indicate technical changes, but also technological changes within the model, to the extent that they manifest with visible doses of neutrality. (Gâf-Deac, I.I., 2022), [11] Technological change represents the application of new scientific knowledge and principles on production techniques, determining effects on economic activity.…”
