The Importance


Mining provides the globe with the raw materials that then are turned into the goods we depend upon today. Engineers play an important role in mining because of all the knowledge and information they provide. Engineers have a deep understanding of the mining process and the planning and regulations that come with it. With this knowledge, engineers help mining companies become more profitable. In today’s market that is a major concern. We will talk about this in another section. They also help them to become safer. This may seem like a general statement but it rings true for almost all mining companies, regardless of the material being mined. There are numerous safety regulations in place that govern the mining industry. Mining engineer’s help to ensure the mine follows these regulations but they also look for improvements within the mine the put the mine above the regulations. This makes employees feel better when they come to work as well as reduces the fines and injury rate of the miners.
