In December, we offer our readers primarily a monograph titled “AGH na ratunek Smoczej Jamie”. An interesting point is the item published by GiG from the series of Instructions on the principles of determining compensation for the loss of value of buildings tilted as a result of mining activities. The remaining items on our list concern mines in Vietnam and the storage system. Moreover, both managers and salespeople will also find something for themselves here.
