Shaft mining during the Australian gold rush was developed by numerous miners who adapted techniques from various mining practices. However, it is difficult to attribute the invention of shaft mining to a single individual, as it evolved through collective knowledge and experience among the miners. The gold rush, particularly in the 1850s, saw many miners employing shaft mining methods to reach deeper gold deposits, leading to significant advancements in mining techniques during that period.

What is some mining equipment for shaft mining?
Shaft mining is the earnest form of underground mining. Underground mining is selected when the rock or mineral is so far to reach using surface mining. Shaft mining is the kind of mine that you normally see in movies where the miner travels straight down into a profound, dark tunnel until he reaches the base. The shaft mine has a vertical man shaft, a tunnel where the men travel up and down in an elevator. Equipment is taken into the mine using this shaft, too. Short tunnels to the ore are dug from that man shaft. When the ore is dynamited and broken into chunks, it is taken to the top and loaded into trucks through a second shaft. There is usually an air shaft that gives the mine ventilation. When we visited a coal mine, it was amazing how much air moved around in the tunnels. Moving air removes the gases that occur naturally underground.
How are shaft mining and strip mining similar to open pit mining?
They all involve the mechanized removal of rock.
How are deposits of mineral ores removed from the earths crust?
Shaft mining or strip mining.
What are some early gold mining methods?
panning,shaft mining,cradling and puddling
What are some terms used in mining?
Stope, adit, shaft, vein, ore, drilling, blasting, are a few mining terms.
What is the difference between opencast mining and shaft mining?
Opencast mining involves extracting minerals from an open pit, while shaft mining involves digging tunnels or shafts deep underground to access mineral deposits. Opencast mining is typically used for shallow mineral deposits, whereas shaft mining is used for deeper deposits that cannot be easily accessed from the surface.
