Around $40,000 - $200,000 Anuualy
What was the pay scale like for coal miners in 1920 in the United States?More how they got paid, not exactly what with.
Not a lot of people got paid for mining, it was only about 1/4 of the miners who got paid.
If the mines are not properly ventilated the miners will breath dangerous levels of radon gas. If the miners are not provided proper clothing and masks they will ingest uranium dust. Both of these are likely to cause cancer decades later. If the miners are not properly decontaminated on leaving the mine, they can take home uranium dust which might be ingested by their families. All of this has happened, especially to Navaho miners in AZ and NM.
Miners in Australia look for things like Uranium,Metal,Lithium and all that some also look for gold.
From about 15 years uranium mines in France are closed.Being a very rich country they prefer to buy uranium from other countries avoiding pollution and problems with miners in France.
Miners involved in the extraction of uranium, the fuel used in nuclear energy production, may be directly impacted. Additionally, nuclear power plants require various minerals such as graphite, steel, and copper for construction and operation, leading to potential indirect effects on miners in those sectors. Overall, the relationship between miners and nuclear energy is complex and depends on the specific mineral resources being extracted.
Coal miners in the Victorian era were paid low wages, typically earning around 15-25 shillings per week. The work was extremely dangerous and the conditions were harsh, leading to widespread poverty among coal miners and their families.
how much did miners get paid in the 1800's? Miners in those days got paid by the ton. I was told by my great grandfather that when started mining in the 20's that he started out at 5 cents a ton for the first year he worked. You also have to remember that there was no machinery in those days so all the coal had to mined and loaded by hand.
6 soldiers were killed and 22 miners were killed. 12 miners were injured.
A former Chilean miner was interviewed by CBC TV in Ottawa tonight. He asserted that Chilean under ground miners were paid about $1 /hour. I was appalled! Canadian miners are being paid from $25 to $35 /hour depending on the remoteness of the mine site. No wonder mining companies are clamoring to exploit Chile's resources!
None. A pellet of uranium contains uranium, not coal.
