Mining Engineering

Mining engineering is a discipline of engineering that deals with the practice and use of technology for extracting and processing minerals from the natural world. Mining engineers plan mines and use technical concepts to ensure that natural resources are extracted safely and efficiently.

Mining engineers concentrate on developing environmentally friendly and cost-effective mining equipment and procedures. A mining engineer’s employment might be in the office or on the field. They may work above ground in an open cast mine or underground in a typical mine, depending on the kind of mine. Mining engineers must be willing to travel and be away from home for long periods of time.

Work Profile

Mining engineers develop mines and apply engineering principles, cutting-edge technology, and scientific theory to ensure the safe and efficient exploitation of natural resources.

The mines are designed with both subterranean and above-ground parts. They are in charge of overseeing both the operations and the workforce.

You’ll be surrounded by geologists and metallurgical engineers as a mining engineer looking for new mineral discoveries.

Mining engineers will also be involved in the development of mining equipment for extracting minerals from rock and soil.

The major recruiters that hire for Mining Engineers in India are the Indian Bureau of Mines, Geological Survey of India, Coal India Ltd, IPCL, ONGC, NALCO, TELCO.
