Every year, around the world, there are a lot of mining disasters, which shakes not only the global mining industry, but also the others. Mining safety has become a serious issue that should be paid enough attention to. To ensure mining safety is an obvious figure of the development of the mining industry. However, it still needs more attention.

Mining fatalities in the United States increased significantly in 2010, following a year marked by the fewest deaths in mining history, according to MSHA. Seventy-one miners died on the job last year, compared to 34 in 2009. Forty-eight of those deaths occurred in coal mines, and 23 occurred at metal and nonmetal operations. Of the 71 mining fatalities reported, 23 of those victims were killed in surface mining accidents, while 48 miners died in underground mining accidents, 29 of whom were killed in the explosion at the Upper Big Branch mine in April. The leading cause of coal mining deaths was ignition or explosion, followed by powered haulage and roof falls. The leading cause of metal/nonmetal mining deaths was powered haulage, followed by falling or sliding material, and machinery.

Not only in America, the mining fatalities are serious, but also all over the world. For this phenomenon, governments in every country take effective even compulsory measures to decline the affairs.

Of course, frequent mining fatalities make people realize the significance to keep safe and healthy. With the concept, the higher quality and more advanced technology of machinery are required by the crowd. Many machinery companies are engaging in researching and developing newest equipment: excavator, jaw crusher, belt conveyor, impact crusher, sand maker and all equipment.
