In the US and in many parts of the world, railroads are the main form of transportation for various types of minerals and ores that are part of the mining industry. With proper transportation, the miners have an ongoing way to transport the products mined from the earth. Often the railroads lead to a water port and the mining products can be shipped via waterways, canals and seas to their proper destination.
