- How does dirt and rocks turn into gold bars, copper wire or iron pellets? This whole process happens in a mine and in a series of ore processing plants. In this video I’ll walk you through the whole process from the mine face to the shipping port. So let’s get started.

Thanks for this excellent video. I bought some mines a few years ago, knowing zero about mining. I have little idea about what I am doing and videos like this are very helpful. Currently mining a 1000 tonnes of Lithium per month and 10,000 metric tonnes of Copper.
Do u need a broker that can find u buyers ?
@@aucklanduati1932 Not currently. But I have recorded your address just in case we do. Thanks.
Do you have high chrome mining or forged mining at your copper mine? I wanted some information on that if possible
@@janhavibapat9251couldn’t understand your comment but just a question are you looking for copper ore and chromite ?
How do you just randomly buy mines
Educational. Preparing myself to explore the mining business . Thanks for sharing.
Excellent video Roland! Thx for sharing!
Great video Roland, keep doing these!
Thank you so much for a very informative video!
Thank you I love your presentation!
Great concise explanation 👍 I was especially interested in the underground mining process.
Humble person
Thanks for this presentation
Great video!
Insightful video!!
I have an interview soon - wish me luck everybody!
Good Luck
Did u get the job?
thanks for your sharing, I worked in a mine for months and still afraid of those machines and their noises. When I pass by the sub units, I was sometimes wondering would they bite ;)
Thanks
Nice vid thx
Love your videos. How about a dive into Fuse Minerals? It'd be good to see how this innovative approach applies to the world of mining and metals. Looking forward to your take on it!
Great suggestion!
Fairly well explained and I realize you can't list every detail. But any open pit mine I've worked at always sample the drilled blast hole cuttings since that allows the mines on site lab to test and provide ore / waste percentages in a lot more detail and are much more accurate than the original exploratory drilling can do since those blast holes are spaced a lot tighter and only cover in comparison the short distances of what those blast hole depths are .That lab analysis pinpoints where each of those ore / waste zones are after the blast for the shovel or loader operators. Pit planning and / or geology use a computer program to draw.up those maps, and generally the pit surveyors lay out those zones after each blast with color coded flags on stakes using GPS as a visual location reference for the loading equipment operators. That ore / waste rock ratio wasn't covered or the importance of the waste dumps. Not every load goes to the crusher.
Great added detail! The video was intentionally simplified for sure. The whole ore/waste decision making is covered a bit in this video th-cam.com/video/VTg_229h4bk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=tdQLZ4TFjEqz03l8 and could definitely use more coverage. I'll think about where I can weave that in, maybe in combination with some of the latest ore sorting tech. Thanks again for your comment.
What about the radio-active waste? Where is it kept
Thanks for your video, I would like to hear more about copper mine , we are doing small scale copper mine,
Just blasting copper rocks and crushing to 0.5mm selling base on % of copper ore
Most of the above ground mining photos and processes that I reference are from copper mining. I start with a reference to Nevada's gold mining region but a lot of my pictures are collected from copper mines I've visited. They usually crush the rock similar to what you're doing and then they use ball mills and bubble seperation to pull out the copper and other products before refining it.

Thanks a lot sir , appreciate your reply.
Hello,
I'm keen to learn more about your copper mine. Could you please share your contact details for a brief 10-minute meeting?
Thank you!
Interesting. Although, thinking that some of these huge trucks drive on their own like robots, is kinda terrifying
what makes them think that there is gold there before they start this process?
That's a great question. There's a whole prospecting and site study process that happens before any digging begins. There's no guarantees but they have a detailed visualization of what's under the ground before they start the mine. That could be an interesting video as well.
im sure you have been in business long enough to be able to expand. Would you consider working with the uk and expanding?
I currently work as a business development manager for Cisco Systems globally across the areas of energy and mining. I do a fair bit of work with people in the uk already. If you're interested in following up feel free to reach out to me at RNPlett@cisco.com.
Yoda was here!
how is the crusher and the ball pounder able to crush hard metals like iron? most of that rock looks like stone but if theres iron in there it will not break because of its tensile strenth
Great question! Iron only gets strong after a lot of processing. When it’s in the rock, it’s in raw form and very small pieces inside the rock. The ball mills break apart the rock so the fine iron ore dust can be separated out with magnets or some other type of separation.
@@rolandplett thanks, that explains a lot.
Iron is not as strong in its pure form , steels on the other hand get harder with added carbon let’s say up to 4% wt% . Elements such as chromium and nickel help as well in steel and thus resulting in a strong steel . Of course heat treatment plays the most important role for the microstructure of the steel where you can do tricks for ductility or hardness.
Your video on mining for beginners was super informative. I'd love to see a video about #FuseMinerals, especially since you've explained mining so well. What are your thoughts on their mining process?
Thanks for the suggestion. I’m not a fuse minerals expert but I’ll do some research on it. Stay tuned.
China needed this video last year
what are test to performed on mine site before buying it?
After a prospector / geologist identifies a high probability for a site the company with exploration rights will order a number of drilling samples. I’m not totally sure at what point the land is purchased for a mine. Purchasing land rights, mineral rights and getting authorization to build a mine are all significant work efforts before any amount of digging starts.
Where did u get that capstone plan pdf???
Good question. I just googled "mine plan" and looked for a good sample. I have the pdf but now I can't find the link where I got it. Usually I copy all my links into the same file that I have my script in but that one is now missing. You can see all the others in the show notes. If I find it I'll add it here and in the show notes.

There are many separation processes from magnets in iron ore mining to bubble separators and leeching heaps. The last two use a variety of chemicals.
Imagine the Diesel cost for all that. $
