Site of gold mining in Tamiougou just south of Kongoussi. Paul Sawadogo, 27 years old, prospector says, "I started panning for gold at 17. The gallery is 10m deep. Each prospector spends 12 hours underground and brings up several kilos of ore will be crushed and then washed. The last accident happened 6 years ago." Burkina Faso. Africa.

In town for the Twins/Brewers game last Sunday and we stumbled upon this cool display outside the Joy Global headquarters near Miller Park ( seen in background). This shovel worked in a Kentucky coal mine from 1979-1982. The P&H 2100BL electric mining shovel recently was installed at Miller Parkway and National Avenue. The retired shovel is a permanent monument to P&H Mining, which started as Pawling & Harnischfeger Machine and Pattern Shop on Dec. 1, 1884.
It's 1 million lbs. in total weight and sports a 30 ton capacity bucket.

NASA's 9th Annual Robotic Mining Competition concludes with an awards ceremony May 18, 2018, at the Apollo/Saturn V Center at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida. The University of Alabama Team Astrobotics received the top award, the Joe Kosmo Award for Excellence, which is given to the team that scores the most points during the competition. At far left in front is retired NASA astronaut Jerry Ross. At far right is Richard Johanboeke, NASA education specialist and project manager for the Robotic Mining Competition. More than 40 student teams from colleges and universities around the U.S. participated in the competition, May 14-18, by using their mining robots to dig in a supersized sandbox filled with BP-1, or simulated lunar soil, gravel and rocks, and participate in other competition requirements. The Robotic Mining Competition is a NASA Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate project designed to encourage students in science, technology, engineering and math, or STEM fields. The project provides a competitive environment to foster innovative ideas and solutions that could be used on NASA's deep space missions. Photo credit: NASA/Wayne Saxer

National Mining Museum Scotland
The National Mining Museum Scotland was created in 1984, to preserve the physical surface remains of Lady Victoria Colliery at Newtongrange, Midlothian, Scotland. The colliery, sunk by the Lothian Coal Company in 1890, came into production in 1894. It was nationalised in 1947 with the formation of the National Coal Board, and had closed in 1981.
The buildings were recognised as being of outstanding interest as they formed an almost complete survival of a major Victorian colliery, with later additions. Some demolition, such as the 1950s canteen and medical centre, has occurred but the vast bulk of the structures stand. The winding engine is by Grant, Ritchie and Company and the colliery headstocks were built by Arrols of Glasgow. From 1998 onwards several of the main structures were stabilised and new visitor facilities opened. [Wikipedia]
To study the links between the increased metabolism of the economy and environmental damage, EJOLT looks at mining conflicts (precious metals & bulk materials) and waste disposal conflicts (ship breaking, e-waste exports and waste incineration). Local communities occupying ‘priceless sites’ oppose mining in ecologically sensitive areas (such as Intag, Ecuador) or technological and other corporate practices. We shall elaborate on risk assessment and undertake work to publicize violations of the Basel Treaty on the export of toxic waste (e.g. European ships dismantled in Alang and Sosiya, India). We will conduct a legal analysis of liability regimes in national, international and European laws. Sharing of such landmark cases on mining and ship-breaking conflicts worldwide will help us to elaborate online training materials about debates on health risks and resource destruction, and strategies of legal redress and public consultation in ways that take local activist knowledge into account.

A mural protest on the impact that mining and the future expansion of Coal Seam Gas mining has on the Gloucester and Upper Hunter region of NSW.
The former ore sampler in Murray, Utah. Located "down rail' from the former Murray ASARCO smelter site, with connections to the then Union Pacific and Rio Grande mainlines. Undergoing some sort of demolition effort at the time of the photo, it would stall shortly afterwards leaving the building still standing as a hollowed out skeleton.

Big Pit: National Coal Museum is an industrial heritage museum in Blaenavon, Torfaen, South Wales. A working coal mine from 1860 to 1980, it was opened to visitors in 1980. Photo taken with Canon 550D in December 2012.
WIPP miners use a remote-controlled continuous mining machine to make space in the bedded salt for planned Salt Disposal Investigations.
Mining crews recently began tunneling areas in the north end of the 2,150-foot-deep Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) repository to support a new round of salt studies. Known as the Salt Disposal Investigations (SDI), the studies are designed to test the geologic response of salt to elevated temperatures.
