What Is Mining

Mining is a crucial industry, as well as an industrial operations, that has been fundamental to human civilization, providing essential raw materials for various fields. The meaning of meaning is not complicated to be understood, which is the extraction of valuable minerals or other geological materials from the earth. The minerals include but not limit to coal, iron ore, copper, gold, silver and more. These materials are used as fuel, or can be the raw materials for steel manufacturing, or can be used for electronics and as a catalyst in chemical processes etc. They contribute to the continued growth and responsible development of essential industries.

What Is The Mining Process

In brief, mining process involves digging into the earth’s crust, extracting minerals such as coal, metals, gemstones etc., and can have various methods. For example, surface mining needs to have the process of removing overlying rock and soil, in order to access minerals close to the surface. In contrast, underground mining involves tunneling into the earth to reach deeper layers. The extracted materials undergo processing to extract valuable elements, which are then used in a myriad of industries.

What Building Elements Need To Be Considered For Mining Camp

When speaking of the detailed mining process, many aspects and operations need to be considered. Integrating with all the necessary processes and operations, we now can see how a mining camp is composed of.

A mining camp normally is structured according to the operations of exploration, extraction and processing of minerals. Therefore, a mining camp has the temporary structures as well as the permanent structures in terms of function. All these structures are for industrial operations and storage.

The exploration tents are temporary structures during the initial geological surveys and in the beginning exploration phase. Flexibility in installation and ease of relocation are the core features which need for the tents, mainly for time and cost saving.

Fundamental-function buildings serve as semi-permanent and/ or permanent structures in the mining camp. Structures for administration, accommodation, dining, medical, process, mining warehouse and storage are in need. Different buildings have different requirements on the buildings. Shelter Structures’ mining space solutions provide versatility for various buildings, especially in mining storage. The basic feature of our mining storage facilities is the clearspan structure, which has no internal obstructed columns, providing the free moving space for personnel, max storage spaces and operational moving. For mining storage, large span and adequate vertical space are crucial. Shelter Structures’ TFS series, due to its peach shaping and max span of 60 meters, provides sufficient vertical space for mineral stacking and also the durability serving as permanent building. These innovative structures, typically made from high-strength fabric membranes stretched over the frame, offer versatile solutions as well as for various mining applications.

Besides the minerals have the stacking needs, for mining equipment, such as conveyors, drilling rigs, and transportation vehicles, the high ridges are not necessarily needed for their moving and storage. Shelter Structures’ M & L series, with A frame, are not only the cost-effective solution, but also durable to protection the equipment against external harsh elements. Additionally, the lightweight nature of our aluminum frames contributes to serve as temporary or emergent storage needs.

How Shelter Structures’ BRT Contributes To The Mining Process

In mining process, especially in mining operations, mining company encounters many fire-related risks. Explosives handling counts highly for the safety of mined minerals, other assets and human lives. Blasting can result in severe damage, under such circumstances, Shelter Structures’ Blast Resistant Tents (BRT) solution can reduce the risks as much as possible. Engineered by Baker Risk, the leader in risk management, compliance with API RP-756, and conduction of the comprehensive assessment with the primary object of certifying the tents’ quality for siting at refineries and chemical processing facilities for the use of tents in process plant blast zones, finally proved to be fit in Zone 3 and Zone 2 applications, our BRT enhances protection for mining process and refinery industries.

What Is Shelter Structures’ Storage Unit For Mining

Shelter Structures’ mining storage solutions are fit for bulk material storage, mining equipment storage, temporary shelters for mining operations, the sizes and types can vary. Our standard storage unit is in increment of 5 meters, which can be understood as the bay unit. As the mining applications differ from each other, for operations and storage, from small to big, like 5×5 storage unit, 5×10 storage unit, 10×10 storage and more. Alternatively, by customization, the storage unit distance can be as your requirements. The width span and length can be customized as well, the max width span can reach at 60 meters (200 feet), while the length can be unlimited scaled. For example, we had a project in Chile for the diamond mine storage, one of our mining shelters reached 30×100 meters, which was served as the client’s mining equipment storage warehouse. Heights can be customized with Shelter Structures as well, up to 11 meters, our max aluminum profile reaches to 420mm in length for supporting such permanent warehouse storage facilities.

How Is The Situation Of Storage Rental For Mining

Shelter Structures had many projects in mining industry, not only directly involved for mining projects, but also many projects delivered to industrial rental companies for mining. Industrial storage rental is trending for mining, constructions, agriculture and more fields. Although Shelter Structures not have the business for storage units for rent, we can still provide professional advice for your rent storage business. Our structures, serving as the storage facilities, have the advanced feature of flexibility in scale up and down, due to prefabricated modular, our structures do not need onsite operations, like welding or extra manufacturing for the frames. Together with the lightweight materials, this feature creates the best benefits for storage room renting companies and industrial space renting businesses.
