Is it dangerous mining gold?
Mining is potentially a very dangerous occupation, however, with the health and safety rules in place in most Western countries these risks are well managed. Firstly, are you talking about open cut or underground mining? Depending on the nature of the gold deposit this will dictate the mining method used to extract it. This may range from large open cut operations to small narrow vein airleg mining which is performed underground. Obviously, underground is potentially a more dangerous environment due to the potential for rock falls, equipment fires and even gas explosions (in some mines, not all). Compared to coal however, many consider hard rock mining (ie: gold, nickel, zinc, copper etc) to be far safer due to the fact that metal deposits tend to form in hard rock environments, whereas coal is a sedimentary deposit and is softer. This means that coal mines have a higher potential for roof (or 'back' as we say in metal mining) failure. Actually, in longwall mining for coal the roof is designed to collapse behind the mining front. Underground workings are supported with steel bolts and mesh to prevent them caving which is crucial to stability underground. So generally, wherever you are underground the risk of rock fall is minimal...as long as you NEVER walk under unsupported ground...a BIG NO NO IF YOU WANT TO LIVE. Before you work underground you will receive induction training and what to do in case of emergencies etc. It may seem scary at first but it is very exciting working underground, and the guys on your crew will look out for you as a new guy. That's what is so cool about mining, there is a lot of camaraderie on the mines, a great working environment. So, basically, there are obvious risks in mining especially when you have such large machinery in enclosed spaces, explosives to play with, blasting hauling etc etc. But with some decent initial training, working safely and looking out for your crew mates there is no reason why mining should be any more dangerous in reality than other professions. Comments are based on my experience as a miner/mining engineer working in underground nickel, gold and coal mines

Can you describe how mining is done?
Some mining is done by scraping away the soil (dirt) from the top of the ground. This is called strip mining. Some mining is done by going deep underground into a mine shaft. Some mining, such as gold mining, is done in other ways. Gold can be mined by searching in the bed of a river or other stream of water to remove the flakes of gold. This is called panning or placer mining.
