Mine Machines for Hard Rock Mining

There’s a lot of ways to dig through rock. You just saw a few of the machines that are built to move rock. Mining uses all of these machines and more. In this video we’ll explore the machines used in hard rock mining. There are a lot of things that can happen from the rock face to the processing plant.. so let’s get started.

Examples of hard rock mining include: Gold, Copper and most metal mines, diamond mines and uranium mines. Soft rock mines use very different methods and machines. Stay tuned for that video next.
