Mine safety training saves lives. In 1978, the year the Mine Safety and Health Admin-istration was established, 242 miners died in mining accidents. In 2012 the number of deaths had dropped to 36. Training the people who work in the mining industry – and retraining annually – helps reduce deaths, injuries and illnesses.

بیشترOpen Pit Mining. Open-pit mining, also known as opencast mining, open-cut mining, and strip mining, means a process of digging out rock or minerals from the earth by their elimination from an open pit or borrow. The word is used to distinguish this type of mining from extractive methods that need tunneling into the earth.
