Mining, one of the most important industries in South Africa has proven a robust industry. There is evidence that countries are better with a healthy mining sector to resist in a position to the global downturn, as they still offer enormous profits and create many jobs, while in many areas of skills development. Materials such as gold, platinum and coal, which may otherwise not be recovered, make the mining industry. With highly specialized and expensive plans, modern equipment, we are able, coal, iron ore, tantalum, gold, diamonds and minerals in our daily life use. The selection of the area and I am the most important part as an area where mining would take place needs minerals to provide a convenient, fast and cost effective manner. Although reached by leaps and bounds in mining safety, it is still one of the most dangerous industries in the world as it should be made out under dangerous conditions. Safety of workers is at the head of a mining company and millions are to improve safety and working conditions of miners are spent each year.
The African country of Mozambique is rich in various minerals and is the fourth fastest growing economy in Africa. Mozambique identified as a potential future source of coal influenced by the Karoo formations and fracture technology. In northern Mozambique in the Zambezi, a rare blue - gray metal called tantalum is extracted. Since 12 Century, the border between Zimbabwe and Mozambique is known as a source of gold.
Coal is a fossil fuel, the largest energy-producing mineral. It is a mixture of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen. The mining industry could have a negative impact on the environment, but because the big question is one of the most profitable areas of mining in South Africa. It is a huge industry in South Africa has 11% of coal reserves in the world, and is responsible for 6% of world production. 80% of primary energy in South Africa needs are met by coal. Geologists, engineers and technologists mining coal and geo-engineers play a very important role in the search for coal deposits in various locations through comprehensive planning and research.
The health and safety of my employees is always of the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA), employment, production, injuries, illnesses and accidents covered monitored. The monitoring of these factors has been implemented for the evaluation of existing procedures for the effective conservation measures necessary. could be chemicals in the mining process used cause inconvenience to the environment, humans and animals. Chemicals such as cyanide, mercury and methyl mercury, which merged with the metals and minerals are released into the ocean, rivers and streams. The contaminated water can cause serious health hazards to humans and aquatic organisms. It is therefore important that the industry must meet strict safety guidelines and the negative impact on the environment and the people take to reduce follow.
