Drones. Underground mining drones, like Flyability's Elios 3, are used for visual inspections in stopes, ore passes, ventilation shafts, conveyor belts, and other areas of an underground mine.. Drone technology has allowed inspections to be conducted in areas that are unsafe for humans to enter, presenting an invaluable tool in such hazardous conditions.
Mechanical extraction methods employ mechanical processes in a relatively dry environment to mine minerals from the Earth's crust. In contrast, aqueous methods involve water, or occasionally other liquids, to extract minerals. The surface mining methods can be classified as shown here. We will discuss the mechanical extraction methods in this ...

It could not only perform the filtration, rolling and gathering of stone powder, but also effectively prevent the collected stone powder from accumulating in a …
Methods to determine the mine air requirements for DPM dilution are described by both Haney (1998); Grau (2002). Grau (2002) reported that the estimated air quantity required for the equipment currently operating in an underground stone mine producing 113 million metric tons (1.25 million tons) is 401 m3/s (850,000 cfm) to dilute to a 400. tc:g/m.

Mechanical properties of rocks determine the method of their mining. The most common mechanical properties are defined by uniaxial compression strength. However, the efficiency of the mining process is also affected by abrasiveness, which influences the rate of tool abrasive wear. Drilling and blasting are widely used to mine hardly workable rocks.
