DESCRIPTION

Executive Directory of Mining Industry Professionals allows you to target individuals that work in the mining industry to help generate energy used is the country from electricity in homes to fuel in vehicles. Mined resources also serve as inputs for consumer goods and the processes and services provided by nearly all other industries, particularly in agriculture, manufacturing, transportation, utilities, communication, and construction. Uses of mined materials include coal, oil, and gas for energy, copper for wiring, gold for satellites and sophisticated electronic components, stone and gravel for construction of roads and buildings, and a variety of other minerals as ingredients in medicines and household products.

The Mining Industry is endowed with a wealth of natural resources that have fostered its growth and development. The discovery of resources such as gold or oil has resulted in major population shifts and rapid growth for formerly remote regions of the country, such as California, Texas, and Alaska.

The mining industry contains five main industry segments, oil and gas extraction, coal mining, metal ore mining, nonmetallic mineral mining and quarrying, and support activities for mining. Many resources produced by the mining industry, particularly metals, oil, and gas, are relatively rare and are part of a global market that is highly sensitive to changes in prices. Coal is less susceptible to world market conditions, but it also has seen price increases in recent years that have led to expanded production. Demand for nonmetallic minerals is primarily affected by the level of activity in the construction industry, particularly the building of new roads and highways.

Individuals in the mining industry need no formal education requirements for new extraction workers, although a considerable amount of job training and experience is needed before workers can perform most duties or advance to more skilled positions. Skilled maintenance and construction workers usually need several years of vocational training in their field, while workers in professional occupations need at least a bachelor's degree. Workers in extraction occupations usually must be at least 18 years old, be in good physical condition, and pass a drug test. Most workers start as helpers to experienced workers and learn skills on the job; formal training is becoming more important, as more technologically advanced machinery and methods are used.
