machinery used in underground mining

Mining In today’s world mining is a key method to help get useful materials from deep inside the earth. Special machines get themselves down to dig and bring up important minerals such as coal, copper and gold. These machines are very essential to make the mining process profitable. Let’s take a look at some of the equipment you would use to mine for coal underground.

One of the main machines used in underground mining is a drill rig. These powerful machines bore into the ground, working to help miners access the precious resources trapped deep inside. There are all sizes of drill rigs. Some are tiny for probing; others are large enough to dig tunnels through which to pass the mined material.

The loader is also a very important machine in underground mining. Loaders pick up the mined materials and transport them to the surface to be processed. They are also available in various sizes. Some are designed for areas without much room to maneuver, others are built to carry a huge load of ore.

Other special equipment used: In addition to drill rigs and loaders, other special machines are used for underground mining. One of them is a roofboler. Roof bolters are used to keep the roof of the mine from falling down. They drive bolts and supports into the rock with strong arms, to keep everything steady for the miners working below.
