Abstract
Resource recycling in mining engineering faces numerous challenges, ranging from technological barriers to economic and environmental considerations. These challenges hinder the efficient recovery of valuable materials, posing significant obstacles to sustainability in mining operations. This article explores the main challenges associated with resource recycling in the mining sector, including technological limitations, economic factors, regulatory frameworks, and environmental impacts. The paper also discusses potential solutions and innovative approaches to overcome these challenges, emphasizing the importance of integrating new technologies and sustainable practices into mining operations. The need for policy reforms and international collaboration to improve resource recycling practices is also highlighted.
