Communication in Science & Technology Education & Research Program　(CoSTEP) (CoSTEP) of the Open Education Center Institute for the Advancement of Graduate Education (CoSTEP) will hold the 131st Science Cafe Sapporo "Rethinking Mining Science - The Current State of Mine Development That One My Own Bottle Will Teach You" on September 10th. It will be held on the day.

Even your personal bottle, which you own as being ``good for the environment,'' contains iron mined from all over the world, as well as rare metals such as chromium and nickel. When mining these minerals, a large amount of soil must be dug up, and a large amount of leftover soil and waste are produced during the subsequent refining of the ore. There are other issues that we don't know about, but that we should be aware of, such as issues related to the working environment and issues related to native rights. This year's Science Cafe Sapporo is entitled "Reconsidering Mining Science," and we have invited Mr. Yohei Kawamura, who specializes in mining science, to talk about the problems faced by mine development and the technological development aimed at solving them. I'll enjoy having this. In the second half, a workshop will be held where participants can discuss mine development issues. Let's take this opportunity to ``reconsider'' the mining development issue from our own perspective.
