Full Description
The SME Underground Mining Handbook distills the body of knowledge from many of the world's most distinguished mining professionals, bringing clarity to this multi-faceted engineering discipline. By presenting the leading edge of the industry's expertise, this landmark publication will inspire and inform both current and future generations of mining professionals.
The need to mine deeper for ever-decreasing ore grades in more austere and remote parts of the world under greater scrutiny by both a discerning public and the communities where mining takes place, as well as those who fi nance such operations, is the backdrop for this book. As these—and other conditions—become more demanding, the mining industry must learn to operate more effi ciently and effectively, and with fewer operators and engineers.
The SME Underground Mining Handbook describes the major methodologies employed within this global industry, highlights the thrust and direction of change, and examines the white heat of revolutionary developments within numerous sectors. It also explores the myriad research projects and work being undertaken by individuals, academia, companies, equipment manufacturers, and specialist organizations in overcoming the plethora of challenges that face today's underground mining industry.
