“Modern miners are people who are able to ‘speak’
the same language as the planet, using the latest technologies
for the production of new, valuable components from the Earth’s
depths, from the bottom of the ocean, and — in the near future —
from the surface of natural space objects.
Extraction of the most valuable and expensive underground
resources is the basis of many countries’ economies,
so specialists-miners are one of the most demanded professions in the world!”

Head of NUST MISIS College of Mining
