Dirty Great Machines - Down-The-Hole Drilling | Technology Documentary | Reel Truth. Science

Ғылым және технология

Kidd Mine in Ontario, Canada plunges 200 miles underground and is the deepest base metal mine in the world. The miners use a technique called blast hole mining to extract metal and use state of the art Down-The-Hole Drills located beneath the surface to make holes at almost any angle.

    You guys have big balls going 12 and a half miles down in the darkness... I spit my balls up and out my mouth. Gagged and farted, watching this, not to mention the claustrophobia. What's the song? "Take this job and shove it!!!" Seriously though. Kudos to you guys that can handle this kind of work. I know my limits.

    We mine 75% of the salt and leave 25% for pillars. What happens after the mine is no longer producing and is abandoned. Will the mine flood and collapse after water washes away pillars, causing mayhem on the surface above?

    For all the mines in operation, you need experienced people to run the machinery and equipment. In my hometown, the german Freiberg there is located the first and oldes mining academy in the world. 850 years ago, silver was found near the surface. This was the beginning of the silver rush in Freiberg. In 1750 the mining academy was founded to make the underground mining more safe and more efficient. The mining academy was the mother of all mining methodes we using in the present time. The old silver mine is now part of the academy. The students can using the stopes for practice her knowledge. This is unique in the world. In the 850 yeras, more than 64 million tons of rock was mined. The output of pure silver was more than 6000 tons. For 200 years Freiberg was the richest city in Germany. The silver exploration ends in 1912 but the History of mining is present everywhere in the City.

    12 1/2 mile ramp. 25 to 40 min drive time. For what is really only 2 miles distance. I think I would be pressuring R&D for that "drive off into a vertical shaft and kick on the inertial fall-dampers in 15 seconds" device on a weekly basis. Sure, you get paid for the drive time, but still......

    200miles!🤣😂 That's what I was thinking. Been to the bottom of #4&was bolting in 9800 Station before it broke into ramp. Pressures are crazy, "Unopened bottle of water, the label was loose around the bottle before opening the bottle". That's how much pressure on the body, "for the kiddos out there". And using a jackleg and stoper, in 48°c plus 100% humidity. Like working out for 10.5hrs straight while in a sauna sucking dust from a vacuum as a breather hose, mixed with blue diesel fumes. Enjoy.. ALL TRUTH, EVERY WORD.
