Surface mining

Mining equipment on working site

Surface mining, including strip mining, open-pit mining and mountaintop removal mining, is a broad category of mining in which soil and rock overlying the mineral deposit are removed, in contrast to underground mining, in which the overlying rock is left in place, and the mineral is removed through shafts or tunnels.

Surface mining can also be divided into surface metal mining, surface coal mining, and surface iron mining. The former mainly produces non-ferrous metals, mainly mining coal and some non-metallic minerals in the middle, and the latter mines iron ore.

The diversity of mining equipment

Mining machinery refers to machinery directly used in mineral mining and rich selection, including mining machinery and mineral processing machinery.

The working principle and structure of the prospecting machinery are mostly the same or similar to those of the mining machinery. In a broad sense, it is also a mining machine. A large number of cranes, conveyors, fans and drainage machinery are also used in mining operations.

The diversity of mining equipment

Technology innovation assures good-quality machines

Technology innovation offers precision and helps in time saving by enabling the work process faster and easier. Proliferating use of mining equipment facilitates in selective mining because they produce high quality material and stable surfaces and embankments.

Mining equipment like jaw crusher, cone crusher offer low noise, low dust and less damaging devices, hence enable effective mining in different areas. Mining equipment aid in reducing processing cost by producing small grains, thus eliminating the need of buying additional crushing equipment.

Mining devices also facilitate in reducing the need for wheel loaders and excavators owing to is the capability of dumping the material into dumper trucks through a conveyor belt.

Currently, a single machine performs multiple tasks which means that they reduce the need for extra machines and man power. Usage of this equipment enables great precision while cutting steep and stable surfaces. It offers effective planning and coordination of the process.

Market distribution of mining equipment

Due to the advantages of economic technology in developed regions such as North America, Europe, Japan, etc., the global production of mining equipment in these regions is increasing year by year.

With the continuous development of China, India, and Southeast Asia, the mines in these regions Equipment is constantly improving in terms of quantity and quality.
