MINING ENGINEERING

Mining Engineering is a subset of CIVIL ENGINEERING that create and design systems are used to locate, transport and extract natural resources. Mining engineers examine the practicality, safety and output of potential mines. They also develop equipment and carry out research that reduce the environmental effect of mining and strictly work with geotech, surveying and metallurgy experts.
